Legal Question in Intellectual Property in Illinois
internet images and reproduction
I edit a medical journal (local publication) and we often want to use images from the internet or other sources. If we site the source (such as: photo by Associated Press), are we violating copyright law. Do we need express permission? Does it matter if it is not for profit? What could happen?

If it is not for profit...it can be argued as fair use. It is better to take permission for images you use.
