Yes. There are specific rules and regulations for the use of copyrighted material for educational purposes. In the United States, these rules are governed by The Copyright Act of 1976, which established guidelines for educational use exemptions such as reproduction, distribution and performance of works without obtaining permission from the copyright owner. Additionally, under Section 107 of The Copyright Act, certain materials may be used legally without permission in connection with teaching activities or scholarly research as long as it meets certain criteria related to intentionality and amount. Furthermore, many institutions offer licenses to help make copyright materials more easily accessible in digital formats in compliance with the law.
