Likewise, absence of a copyright symbol \u00a9 does not mean the work can be freely used. The graphic designers of Creative Services can provide aid in securing appropriately licensed stock images and other images for which permission to reuse\/remake has already been granted. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Producing materials for educational use does NOT automatically mean you have permission to use someone else\u2019s images. <\/strong><br \/>\nMany people misunderstand copyright as meaning that they can use any image they can find as long as it will be used for educational purposes, but this is not correct. Having an educational purpose is only one of four factors considered when determining what is \u201cfair use.\u201d <\/p>\n<p><strong>When you submit your own designs for production, you take responsibility for the use of any copyrighted or trademarked materials.<\/strong><br \/>\nYour projects should not include any copyrighted materials or licensed trademarks unless you have clear permissions for reuse. Creative Services will not assume responsibility for any infringement. <\/p>\n<p><em>Finally, this information is intended as general guidance rather than legal advice.
