Yes, there are alternative methods of obtaining copyrighted material without violating copyright law. For example, many universities and college libraries offer copyright-friendly ways to access materials including through Open Access Repositories or Digital Libraries. Also, some publishers offer free or low-cost access to works through subscriptions or download plans. Finally, many countries also have a Fair Dealing/Fair Use law which permits the making of limited copies for specific purposes such as criticism and commentary or for personal study and research.
