Upon receipt of payment, SAF agrees to provide the Subscriber and its Authorized Users access to the SAF online database or portion thereof, consisting of current and retrospective years of SAF publications. This agreement grants access to the SAF online database for educational, research, and personal use by the faculty, staff, students, alumni, and library patrons utilizing the Subscriber's contiguous campus network. Distance learners, alumni, and other off-campus affiliates may access SAF online if their Internet access is through the campus network and the Subscriber has a process to validate Authorized Users.
The Subscriber's Authorized Users may download and print articles for personal use and archive contents on their own personal computers. They may send one copy by email, print, or fax to one person at another location for that individual's personal use. Libraries may not provide SAF content for digital interlibrary loan, but may service interlibrary loan requests using photocopying and faxing of documents, provided the loan falls under fair use guidelines. Libraries may include copies of SAF digital content in local electronic course reserve systems limited to use of Authorized Users of current classes.
