Fair Use Definition

Fair use is a doctrine in United States copyright law that allows limited use of copyrighted
material without requiring permission from the rights holders, such as commentary, criticism,
news reporting, research, teaching or scholarship. It provides for the legal, non-licensed citation
or incorporation of copyrighted material in another author’s work under a four-factor balancing
test. (Source: https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/17/107)

One of the rights accorded to the owner of copyright is the right to reproduce or to authorize
others to reproduce the working copies or phono records. This right is subject to certain
limitations found in sections 107 through 118 of the copyright law (title 17, U.S. Code). one of
the more important limitations is the doctrine of “fair use”. The Doctrine of Fair use has
developed through a substantial number of court decisions over the years and has been
codified in section 107 of the copyright law.
