All of our atlases for circulation are just out there for anyone to copy
as much as they want. Our reserve atlases that do not circulate we will
xerox a "limited" number of pages for patrons. We have no self service
scanners of any size, and all scanning requesters must fill out a form
that addresses copyright questions which is either approved or denied by
Mary (the copyright wizard). Yes, we take copyright questions very
seriously.
