      ab: This article focuses on the first revision of the Copyright Law passed by the U.S. Congress. The Congress has passed the first revision of the copyright law since 1909, including provisions that could end much of the free photo-copying of copyrighted works done by teachers, students, researchers, and libraries. The numerical guidelines were written in response to demands from education groups that they be told specifically how much free photocopying they could do. The guidelines were drawn up for the Congress by an ad hoc group representing some 40 education associations, working together with representatives of publishers and writers. Following are some implications of the guidelines on permissible photocopying of copyrighted works. The new legislation paves the way for future modifications in the rules if the restrictions prove too burdensome. It calls on the Register of Copyrights to report back to the Congress within five years on the effects of the photocopying limitations on library use.
