- Private study automatically permits every full-book photocopy.
- A single copy is automatically permitted regardless of exclusions.
- Only the student's age matters.
- All educational purchases transfer copyright.
- The permission expressly excludes reprographic reproduction of an entire book or substantial part; the sole asserted ground is insufficient.
