Harvard Fair Use Project

The Harvard Fair Use Project is a legal initiative at Harvard Law School that helps creators, libraries, educators, and others understand and defend fair use rights. Fair use is a legal principle allowing limited use of copyrighted material without permission, such as for commentary, criticism, or education. The project provides expert advice, legal analysis, and support to ensure that individuals and organizations can freely use existing works while respecting copyright laws. Its goal is to promote access to information and creative expression through fair and lawful use of copyrighted content.
