Copyright Statement
According to Article 25 of the Lebanese Law on Copyright:
It is permissible, without the approval of the author, and freely, to copy or photocopy a limited number of copies, by non-profit institutions such as educational institutions and public libraries, as long as these institutions keep at least one original copy that students can use free of charge. This is to remain until the time when other mechanisms for photocopying are put in place by the Ministries of Education, Higher Learning and Vocational Training. Legally, a student may make one photocopy free of charge and for personal use without prior approval in order to criticize a work or for supporting an opinion or for citation or any other educational purpose, as long as the number and size do not exceed what is required – and in this case, the author’s name and title of work must always be cited.
