The Cameron Library for the Intellectually Gifted has one of the most comprehensive libraries of rare books

Question:

The Cameron Library for the Intellectually Gifted has one of the most comprehensive libraries of rare books in Canada. It has a public facility in Vancouver where it permits patrons to review rare books in the library. Although the Cameron Library does not permit patrons to sign out the priceless works, it does provide self-serve photocopiers and digital scanners that patrons can use to copy materials. Upon request, the library will also scan and email materials to individual patrons outside the Vancouver area. This service is called the Email Service. A Cameron Library policy states that copying in the library and copying for the Email Service is permitted for research purposes. Recently, however, Dr All worth, the author and owner of copyright in a book at the Cameron Library, discovered that his book had been copied by patrons in the library. He also learned that the library has scanned and emailed a portion of his book under the Email Service. He immediately commenced an action for copyright infringement against the library. You work at the Cameron Library and have been asked to provide an opinion as to whether it has committed a copyright infringement through its Email Service.
