Hi Shira, It's not a clearly delineated issue. But you might take a look at the excellent ICA best practice for use for scholarship in communication. http://www.icahdq.org/pubs/reports/fairuse.pdf I have used this document (successfully) as grounds to support my fair use claims for using screenshots of various websites and videos in published reports. In a blog post, I mention the specific aspects of this document I've found useful. http://www.markham.internetinquiry.org/2012/02/fair-use-of-images-in-scholar... There are many issues, of course, including restrictions and specifications by country, journal or book publisher, university, etc.....I think you might find more info in archives of this mailing list where previous conversations have addressed similar questions.

Hi everyone,
Quick question regarding fair use of images in publications: If a YouTube video does not have any copyright on them, would a screen shot of that video fall under fair use for scholarly publications?
Thanks in advance for any advice!
Best, Shira
