(iv) Discussion of Guidelines
The Committee appreciates and commends the efforts and the cooperative
ancl reasonable spirit of the parties who achieved the agreed guidelines
on books and periodicals and on music. Representatives of the American
Association of University Professors and of the Association of American
Law Schools have written to the Committee strongly criticizing the
guidelines, particularly with respect to multiple copying, as being too
restrictive with respect to classroom situations at the university and
graduate level. However, the Committee notes that the Ad Hoc group did
include representatives of higher education, that the stated "purpose of
the . . . guidelines is to state the minimum and not the maximum
standards of educational fair use" and that the agreement acknowledges
"there may be instances in which copying which does not fall within the
guidelines . . . may nonetheless be permitted under the criteria of fair
use."
The Committee believes the guidelines are a reasonable interpretation of
the minimum standards of fair use. Teachers will know that copying
within the guidelines is fair use. Thus, the guidelines serve the
purpose of fulfilling the need for greater certainty and protection for
teachers. The Committee expresses the hope that if there are areas
where standards other than these guidelines may be appropriate, the
parties will continue their efforts to provide additional specific
guidelines in the same spirit of good will and give and take that has
marked the discussion of this subject in recent months.
