[edit] Summary

The Yellow Star by Carmen Deedy

[edit] Fair use in Carmen Agra Deedy

Although the picture is subject to copyright, I (User:A Softer Answer) feel and assert that it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

The image is a low resolution copy of a book cover.
The image does not limit the copyright owners' rights to distribute the book in any way.
No free equivalent is available or could be created that would adequately give the same information.
The image's inclusion in the article is important because it illustrates content discussed in the text.
The image is being used for informational purposes only.

[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.
