- Remove, obscure or modify in any way copyright notices, other notices or disclaimers that appear on the Licensed Products
Engagement in any of the activities included in the list above may result in an immediate termination of a patron's privileges.
Breaches of the University's contractual arrangements with publishers could result in the suspension of access to the resources for the entire ISU community.
