I copied some really useful material for a research project. These might be useful to other people as well, so can I make copies to give to libraries that might be interested in them?
You may be able to give the copies you made to a library, but the “fair dealing exceptions” are not likely to apply to allow you to make further copies for other (currently unknown) researchers.
In some cases, however, the library may be entitled to make copies of material it acquires as part of its collection, under, for example, the library provisions or section 200AB.
