16. Five questions to ask yourself when establishing if the use is fair: Are you creating something new or just copying? Are you competing with the source you are copying from? Does citing the work mean you do not have to ask permission or you can use as much as you want? How much are you copying? How important to the original is the material you want to copy? The more you copy, the less likely it is really fair use.
