2. Identify who owns the copyright by studying the material for any logos, trademarks, or other clues that might indicate who holds the copyright.
3. Contact that person's agent for permission to use the material — remembering, of course, that no one has ownership over ideas and information but only over how they are expressed in some physical form or medium!

The process for legally obtaining copyrighted materials typically involves purchasing rights through a licensing agency or directly from the copyright holder. Copyright holders often license content to companies who can then sell the content on to others, so it may be possible to find the material you are looking for through these channels. Other options may include contacting the copyright owner directly, or seeking permission from an organization like Creative Commons.
