Copyright Information

> This is simply a copy of information posted on the Help for students conducting research page. Visit there to learn more about copyright, the correct Turabian/MLA style citation for internet sites, and more.

> Everything at this site was written by me (Marilee.) Therefore, I hold the copyright for all my original work.

> And I take all the blame if it bores you to tears or confuses you endlessly.

> The site was created in 1997 and is updated regularly. Visit the What's New? page to find out the exact dates.

> If you need a last name to credit the site, please use Marilee Hanson.

> I do not hold the sole copyright to anything at the Primary Sources section. Those are original historical documents in the public domain which I collected and transcribed. Yes, it was loads of work to type everything up, but they were simply transcribed (not written) by me. That is why they're called 'Primary Sources'.
> I do hold the copyright on the electronic version of the texts, which I typed. This is where the internet becomes confusing - essentially, the words are not mine but by virtue of transcribing them into electronic format, I own this particular version. So I would ask that no one copies my hard work, at least without asking permission and/or giving me credit.

> As for graphics used here, copyright law allows the use of images for educational purposes, provided no profit is made and the image is not altered. And since I did go to the considerable trouble of scanning the images, I like to be asked before someone 'borrows' them. This simple act of courtesy goes a long way in the happy-go-lucky world of the internet.

> If you have a history-related website of your own, please let me know so I can add it to my Links page. Thanks.

> In the end, your visit to this site makes my work worthwhile.
> Thanks for visiting and write to me with any specific questions/comments.
