2007 Texas Reading Club Manual
Acceptable Use of Artwork
by Diane Stanley
This year’s Texas Reading Club artist is Diane Stanley and she possesses the copyright to the
artwork she created for “Sail Away with Books.” In accordance with the artist’s contract, the
artwork by Diane Stanley will be inserted into the 2007 Texas Reading Club manual on CD-
ROM and uploaded onto the Texas State Library’s Web site.
In accordance with the artist’s contract, the Texas State Library and Archives Commission grants
Texas libraries a non-exclusive, non-transferable, limited right to reproduce all color artwork and
clip art in the Texas Reading Club manual to promote their libraries and the Texas Reading Club.
It may be used to create items such as crafts, t-shirts, programs, and library decorations.
In addition, Texas libraries are granted permission to upload the color artwork and clip art onto
their library web sites for the sole purpose of promoting the 2007 Texas Reading Club program.
If a library displays the artwork on a web site, the library is obligated to clearly state that it is for
use only by Texas libraries and the artwork must carry the copyright symbol with Diane Stanley
listed as copyright holder.
The color artwork on the certificate, poster, and bookmark may not be altered or modified in any
way. Images may not be manipulated and colors may not be changed. It is, however, acceptable
to use a part of the artwork for promotion. For example, an image of a specific character or a
portion of the artwork may be pulled from the whole art piece and placed on a button, flyer, or
other promotional item.
Bookmarks, Borders, Buttons, Certificates, Reading Logs, and More!
Public libraries in Texas may use the artwork to create items for use as incentives, awards, and
prizes that are given to children. The artwork is the property of the artist. Please respect her
work! All images must include the copyright symbol with Diane Stanley listed as copyright
holder. Libraries may resize and reverse the clip art, but may not alter it. The name of the library
may be added, but the art is owned by the illustrator and should not be touched up, edited, or
modified without permission. Color may be added to the clip art only if the same color hues as
represented in the poster, bookmark, and certificate are utilized.
The artwork may only be used on items that will be sold if the proceeds are returned to the
library directly or through a Friends of the Library organization, and sales are limited to Texas.
Please direct questions to the Texas State Library and Archives Commission, 512-463-6623.
