Perhaps Noam B. Katz ’04 shouldn’t be waiting until the night before the lecture to request his course materials from library reserves. If he had made his fair use copies earlier, I am sure he could find a time when he wouldn’t have to duke it out with his fellow students. He expects someone to go through the trouble and expense of creating a custom text and then set up a copier for him to use to copy it for free—and make 50 originals available so that there...
