I don't think so.... Also the magazine is extremely difficult to find
sometimes is smaller cities and subscriptions are pricey. So I offer from
that point. The other point is equally valid..... I view it as the fact
that if it's one article I don't mind much because it's similar to me going
to the library and photocopied the article out of a mag... for research or
to use at home if it's reserved. If you wanted me to do the whole then I'd
have to refuse. Technically it is a minor violation of copyright but one
that is more than often excused.
Morgan does have a good point. And I'm happy to cull subjects
from the out of print ones for people.... (I have Spin-off from like 1988)
so I feel like I'm a lending library or a research library. I no longer
lend out but I will let you copy for your own personal use.
And Morgan's right - they have really cool info in it but then they always
do....
