[ILL-L] copyright note

[Eric Robinson]

I think you are making an assumption about a patron making multiple 
requests. The statement itself is in regards to a single request - 
therefore I would say the law below holds for a request in an insular 
fashion . The law does not forbid future requests from a patron from a 
previous intellectual work which they requested from in the past. The 
law itself does not assume either that retention of prior patron records 
should be held to maintain the structure you are interpreting it to be.

I would interpret this as no more then one article per request from a 
single intellectual work.

But we don't verify through a search of records that we have never gotten an article for this patron from this issue.

The copyright LAW doesn't speak to a requirement to maintain records of completed copies. (If any of you out there know this to not be true, please please point to the language to support it so I can rescind this statement and we can mend our ways).
