Quotes from the episode

Just because you are an academic and you made a copy doesn’t mean it is for an academic purpose.
-Thomas Tobin

We hear more about what you can’t do, rather than what you can [when making copies of materials].
-Thomas Tobin

[As a layperson, I can tell you that] the law is the last resort. The law only applies when there is no other permission or license in place.
-Thomas Tobin
