With the exception of government publications, documents in our database are the intellectual property of the authors or publishers of the materials and are protected under copyright law. Permission to reproduce the materials for purposes other than private study, scholarship, or teaching must be sought from the copyright holder.
Unless otherwise noted, all material from the Clearinghouse may be distributed freely for educational purposes.

Disclaimers of Liability for Websites
The Clearinghouse attempts to ensure that the documents and websites to which it refers are accurate and up-to-date. Persons intending to act on any information contained in documents or posted on this website should first check with the authors to ascertain whether any later information is available with respect to the relevant material.
The Clearinghouse is not responsible for any content found on a third party's website. We have made efforts to inform visitors to our website when they are linking from our website to one managed by another entity.
The information to which we link may be subject to copyright and other intellectual property rights. We may have acquired special permission and license to post some of this material in full-text format. This permission and license cannot transfer any copyright or other intellectual property rights to you.
The inclusion of any resource or link on these pages does not necessarily imply endorsement. Information changes rapidly, so please check with each sponsoring organization or agency as to whether the information you are receiving on their website is current.
The Clearinghouse and its staff will not be liable for any loss or damage arising directly or
indirectly from the possession, publication, use of, or reliance on information obtained from the Clearinghouse or through its website. It is provided in good faith without express or implied warranty.
Issue of Deep Linking
The Clearinghouse does not circumvent anti-linking measures put in place by other websites. We avoid deep linking, or bypassing the home page of a website, when it is commercially unfair (e.g., gets users around site registrations or avoids banner ads carried on a home page).
