From: "Hinchliffe, Lisa W" <[log in to unmask]> Date: Thu, 29 Mar 2018 17:24:32 +0000 I’m having a hard time conceptualizing how students doing a class assignment could be overzealous. It disturbs me to think that our license agreements would start to impinge on which faculty pedagogies libraries are able to support. Am I misunderstanding something? ************************************************************ ****************************** Lisa Janicke Hinchliffe Professor/ Coordinator for Information Literacy Services and Instruction, University Library Affiliate Faculty, School of Information Sciences University of Illinois, 1408 West Gregory Drive, Urbana, Illinois 61801 [log in to unmask], 217-333-1323 <(217)%20333-1323> (v), 217-244-4358 <(217)%20244-4358> (f) ************************************************************ ****************************** From: "Ms. Narda Tafuri" <[log in to unmask]> Date: Wed, 28 Mar 2018 13:30:29 +0000 Dear colleagues, We recently were contacted and warned by ProQuest Technical Support due to “excessive usage.” This turned out to be legitimate usage by overzealous students working on a class assignment. Coincidently, I was just sent a new “overarching” ProQuest license to sign. Our license indicates that users are permitted to download or print “reasonable” amounts of material. The new license contains a new section with a list of Restrictions. I am wondering if others are also experiencing this type of thing (excessive usage claims) coming from ProQuest and a tightening of license terms regarding usage? Thank you to anyone who is willing to share their recent experience with this.
