“WARNING! The library is not responsible for any damage to your computer that may be a result of copying the contents of this disc.”

Yesterday I discovered a young man (who has been using our wireless free of charge all summer and does not have a library card with us!) copying library audiobooks to his computer. I was just so surprised at the moment that I couldn’t come up with much to say. Now I am armed and dangerous. I wonder if he will have the nerve to come back.

I handed him his receipt, saying, “Those are all due back on {4 weeks from today}. “Oh,” says he, “if all goes well I’ll have them back to you tomorrow.” It’s very blatant, and I have to cling to the belief that they just don’t know that it’s illegal copying.

Fair use and photocopiers are no problem, but someone who is actually breaking the law by copying DVDs (and their cases) is entirely different. I don’t like the idea of turning someone into the police, so a temporary suspension of library privileges is a good way to get their attention and let them know that what they’re doing is illegal. By not doing anything, the library might be leaving itself open to being sued, too. But all of these steps are dramatic, and unless we have concrete proof, we’re going to err on the side of openness and customer service.

@laura k: I like the business card idea – I might even try to talk Tech Services into printing a warning on business card-sized labels and stick inside the case like @sharon – either way, having it right there with the DVD is better that a separate (and longer) handout.

I’m thinking maybe a sticker that we’d put on the inside of every CD and DVD case as they came in. I know for sure that we have people ripping the music CDs–one patron even asked me to show her how to do it. I don’t think we have anyone making copies of DVDs yet, but it’s just a matter of time. We’re a small rural library and everyone knows everyone else, so I’ve not kicked up a fuss about this yet but, darn it, it is illegal.
