making of photocopies or other reproductions of copyrighted material. Under
certain conditions specified in the law, libraries and archives are authorized
to furnish a photocopy or other reproduction. One of these specified conditions

than private study, scholarship or research." If a user makes a request for,
or
later uses, a photocopy or reproduction for purposes in excess of "fair use",
that user may be liable for copyright infringement.
Because the primary collecting focus of the University of Mississippi's Archives and
