Remember to pay attention to the terms of use of electronic resources

A wide range of electronic resources has been acquired for the use of Aalto University students and researchers. However, it is good to remember that all use of the materials acquired by the Aalto University Learning Centre is subject to the terms of use.

The materials have been acquired to support research, teaching and studying. The resources can be browsed, searched, and a reasonable amount of search results can be printed for personal study and research use.

There are also restrictions on use: the material may not be systematically copied, made available to third parties or used for commercial purposes. Automated searching or harvesting of the materials with software, as well as copyright infringement, is prohibited. In addition, it is not allowed to create a new collection from the material by systematically saving it. Cases of misuse are investigated and addressed. It is possible that the publisher can cut off access to the materials for all users at the university.

Check the terms of use of the resources in the library database Aalto-Primo, as there may be specific exceptions for individual resources. In the Aalto-Primo database, the terms of use for electronic resources can be viewed by clicking the "show terms of use" link in the availability information of the material.

Most resources are acquired through the FinELib consortium and the terms of use of these agreements are also available on their website: FinELib Terms of Use.
