RESTRICTIONS

Is your material copyrighted and may I use it?

Answer: Yes, our material is copyrighted. Nearly all the original material on the web is copyrighted thanks to the new laws that immediately copyright original work loaded to the web. If you think you won't get caught copying someone else's work, be warned - there are companies on the web that keep track of these things. These companies have been tracking things since the 1990's. They know who posted things first, even if it was posted 15 or 16 years ago and changed since then a whole bunch of times. Many schools these days are paying a fee to these companies so they can see if their students are breaking the rules. 

It's important you know that if you copy someone's work - and post it on any other site including your own - that work is still copyrighted by its original author. You could be in a lot of trouble even if you're a kid because copying someone else's work is illegal. 

The question was: May I use your material? The answer is - absolutely, with a few restrictions. See below: 

RESTRICTIONS: You may NOT copy our work, put your name on it, and turn it in as your work. You may NOT post our work to the web without our written permission, be it on your site or any other site. You may NOT frame our site. You may NOT sell copies of our work without our written permission.  To do so is copyright infringement, which is a crime.  

Note to Our Students: It's okay to copy little pieces of someone else's work as long as you do it in the right way. There are rules (laws, really) on how to do it. For more information, see this site: Copyright & Fair Use.

Teachers: Of course you can use our work in your classrooms with some restrictions as stated above. We hope you find it useful! 

Links: If you need our permission to link to our site, you have it! Links to our site are encouraged and appreciated. Thanks!
