[Genealib] Alumni and Fraternity Directories

[Susan Scouras]

As I interpret this statement, the use of the names and addresses in the
directory on a mailing list of any type is prohibited, and refers to
duplication of the directory,  or list of names and addresses contained
in the directory, in its entirety.  This would not preclude including
the directory in a library collection.

	We have several directories that have been donated to us that
have the following paragraph:

	 

	This directory is for official Fraternity [University Alumni]
use, and also for individual communication of a personal nature between
members listed herein. Use of this directory for any other purpose,
including, but not limited to, reproducing and storing in a retrieval
system by any means, electronic or mechanical, photocopying or use of
the addresses or other information contained in this directory for any
mailing, is strictly prohibited and is in direct violation of copyright.

	 

	Examples:

	Harvard Alumni Directory 2005

	Beta Theta Pi Directory 1984

	Morehead State University Directory 1997

	 

	I have located these directories in many libraries, but
concerned that it may be illegal to put them into a library collection.
Does anyone know how to interpret the above?

	 

	Gratefully,

	Pam
