Do you mean legally possible? I believe that applies only to items you
own. Others would undoubtedly fall under the "fair use" provisions, at
least that's what I recall from those "reminder" sheets stuck up next to
the photocopiers in the library. The gist of it, from what I remember,
is that it is okay to copy parts of a book, say, but not the entire
thing.
Maybe Theo the librarian could chime in, here?
Cheers,
Paul.
