The amount you may copy for study or research depends upon the nature of the material you wish to copy:

  • If the material is an artwork, then the artwork limitations apply
  • If the website is a periodical publication, then the periodical publication limitations apply
  • If the material consists only of text, then you may copy 10% of the number of words. 

You can copy more than this if:

  • the website provides permission and;
  • the owner of the website is authorised by all the copyright owners to give permission.
