Vendors' copyright terms of use

Instructions

This guide explains how content from various databases can be used. We have examined each of the license agreements we have with database vendors, and provided guidance on permitted use, including copying, printing or downloading content or adding content to Moodle. 

The guidance is organised by vendor. You will find the name of the Vendor next to each database name in the Databases A-Z.

Access the guidance for each vendor on the menu to the right. Alternatively from the database link in the Databases A-Z list, click on the CA icon beside the database name to be directed to the appropriate vendor on this page. 


Can I use genAI with library databases?

As a general rule, in order to comply with our license agreements Unitec students and staff must not use library databases or the materials within them in conjunction with a generative artificial intelligence solution. The only exception to this is using genAI functionality that is built into a database as part of the product.
