If an exception such as fair use or face-to-face is not clearly available, you must get permission to use a copyrighted work from the owner of the copyright holder. A request to use copyrighted material can usually be sent to the permission department of the work's publisher.  Allow four to six weeks for a request to be processed. Permission requests should contain:

• Title, author and/or editor, and edition
• Exact material to be used
• Number of copies you plan to make
• Intended use of the material (e.g., educational)
• Form of distribution (e.g., hard copy to classroom, posted on Internet with password protection)
• Whether material will be sold (e.g., as part of a course reader)

In addition, the CCC can give you permission to use many materials for a fee.  Visit tbe CCC online or call (978) 750-8400 to see if the materials you wish to use can be licensed.
