I work at the Melbourne School of Theology and have been asked to add some graphics to some of our eCampus courses (Moodle). Only signed up students can access this material for the time they are enrolled in the course.

Am I allowed (by copyright) to copy images from Bible Facts and use them in our online course material?

If so, how is it best to reference the source?

 

thanks

    Hello, Damian. Welcome to the Logos forums!

    Here is an answer to that question from Bob Pritchett, the CEO:

    Be sure that you're using graphics that were created by Logos, not stuff that is pulled from copyrighted resources in your Library. There will be a source link that tells you where the graphic comes from if it's from another publisher. For example:

    image

    If the source is one of the Logos created repositories of graphics, you're in the clear. For example, anything that has the word Logos in it (e.g., Logos Bible Software Infographics) or Faithlife Study Bible Infographics:

    image

    If there's no source listed, it's probably a Logos graphic:

    To be sure, you can hover over the thumbnail icon and a popup will tell you if it's from logos.com:

    The family trees and timelines for Biblical Events don't give any source info, but those are all created by Logos:

    Dear Rosie Perera, 

    I write Bible study materials for my church and I would like to reprint/publish the following images (copyright to Logos Bible Software) within the study materials. 

    1. Karbel Multimedia, “Herod’s Temple.” Logos Bible Software. http://nearemmaus.files.wordpress.com/2012/07/herodsinnertemple.jpg (accessed June 18, 2013).

    2. Karbel Multimedia, “Sanhedrin.” Logos Bible Software. http://jamesclaytonwilliams.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/the-sanhedrin.jpg (accessed June 18, 2013).

    May I know how can I secure permission for the use? Thank you.
