[Sca-librarians] copyright on scribal artworks

[Judith A Kirk]

However, if you paraphrase the source recipe, such as the original called for D"O(YEG:"IYUT and do not exactly quote the recipe, you can get around that, Johnnae. Point people to the original, then discuss it without quoting exactly the total content of the recipe. It's not an optimal solution....but it should work. Siobhan ----- Original Message -----
