Making sure that your usage of others' copyrighted work does not infringe upon their legal rights can be a daunting process. First, you need to determine whether the work you intend to use is copyrighted (See How to investigate the copyright status of a work). Second, if the work is copyrighted, do you need to get permission and how to get such permission? No permission is needed if your intended us falls under one of the copyright exceptions including fair use.
