Textbooks are written for many reasons, not the least of which is the publisher royalties that are paid to the author(s). Publishers are eager to enforce "fair use" laws that prohibit students from copying materials offered in a given text. Discuss your interpretation of the fair use laws and how you think they relate to students. Are they fair? Also consider how you would interpret the laws if you were the author.

Explanation:

(A) My personal interpretation or view of the Fair Use laws is that they prevent privacy.

(B) How do these laws relate to students? Students are one of the main recipients or users of textbooks.

(C) Are the Fair Use laws fair to students? Yes, but not so much. Students are most times required by their teachers/instructors to write on assigned topics, without copying large volume of content from a material or textbook. The Fair Use laws also seek to establish this, hence students are a bit confined. The laws state that if more than 10% of or 500 words from the text are to be used, credit should be given to the author(s).

(D) If I were an author, my interpretation of the Fair Use laws would be that the laws are in place, to prevent copiers from harming the commercial value of the book.
