[edit] Summary

Cover to The Black Swan by Mercedes Lackey. Artist: Jody Lee

[edit] Fair use for List of fantasy novels

This image, Blackswancoverart.jpg , is being linked here; though the picture is subject to copyright I (MamaGeek (Talk/Contrib)) feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

1. it is a low resolution copy of a book cover;
2. it does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the book in any way; this version of the book is out of print
3. copies could not be used to make illegal copies of the cover artwork on another book;

[edit] Licensing

This image is of a book cover, and the copyright for it is most likely owned either by the artist who created the cover or the publisher of the book. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of book covers to illustrate an article discussing the book in question on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Other use of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information. To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as described on Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline, as well as the source of the work and copyright information. Please include in your fair use rationale details of the particular edition (publisher, market & year of publication) of the edition you have used, and also acknowledge any cover artist if such artist is acknowledged in that edition's frontmatter. If the book cover is in the public domain (see Wikipedia:Public domain), then use the appropriate public domain tag rather than this one.
