FAQs from the US government department in charge of copyright law: https://www.copyright.gov/help/faq/faq-fairuse.html A more legal-oriented site from the same office: https://www.copyright.gov/fair-use/index.html |
| Rick Law:
One thing that will help is to display credits to the original source on the same screen/slide -- this shows clear intention that you are merely using it to add to or explain your points but not trying to claim as your own something "stolen". Something like "Picture from XYZ (if appropriate add:) by PersonA, PersonB..." |
| Stray Electron:
I expect that it's going to depend a lot of the purpose of the presentation. Are you charging people to view it or is it open to everyone? |
| metrologist:
It's an exhibition and we are conducting speaking sessions. The event coordinators charge both exhibitor and admission fees. Moot point now because we're changing all of the images. |
| SiliconWizard:
This is what public domain images are for. A small image as an illustration of some point you're making may pass as fair use, but if your entire presentation is made of copyrighted images with no one's consent, that would be pushing it a bit far. |
