Where possible, lecturers should provide links to online resources rather than making copies. Where it is essential to make a copy, or a work is only available in print, follow the guidance below.
This guidance covers normal teaching situations: teaching in the classroom, preparing slides and making slides or lecture recordings available on a VLE.
If you want to make your teaching materials or lecture recordings openly available on the internet then seek permission to reuse any copyrighted materials. Imperial's licences only cover use by Imperial staff and students.
For a quick guide, follow these Copyright tips for online learning.
