US Copyright and Fair Use
Copyright protects intellectual property and original works of authorship. For more information about copyright, consult the U.S.Copyright Office.
Fair Use is a legal doctrine that permits unlicensed use of copyright-protected works in certain situations, such as criticism, news reporting, reaching, scholarship, and research. There are four factors in evaluating fair use, 1) purpose and character of the use; 2) nature of the copyrighted work; 3) amount and substantial of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; and 4) the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work. For more information, consult the U.S. Copyright Office.
Indigenous Cultural and Intellectual Property
WCC Archives acknowledges indigenous cultural and intellectual rights of Native Hawaiians and other indigenous communities. The archives recognize knowledge from the Hawaiian community can be either kapu (restricted) or noa (free) depending on genealogy, community relationships, and other factors. Certain records within the archives are kapu upon the wishes of the cultural informant. The WCC Archives is open to collaborating with Native Hawaiian groups to best represent their inherent indigenous cultural and intellectual property.
