Thanks for your note. I have a verbal request into Greg Painter to be able to scan it for our website. I suppose I ought to formalize the request in an email. I'd prefer that IDFG put the whole thing on their website and then we could just link to it.
Now with that in mind, it would seem to me that anyone could scan the booklet and share it with their friends one-to-one, so to speak. There's no copyright notice in it that I could see.In fact, I just double checked and still haven't seen a copyright notice in it. So, what could possibly be the problem if you scanned it? I don't see any but I am not an attorney.
I don't want to scan it without their permission since our website is (in theory) designed to make money. So, technically I don't want to run afoul of IDFG by putting it there without their express permission.
You as an individual are in a whole different ball game than our website. I can't imagine what trouble you possibly get in but YMMV! As long as you don't publish it yourself someplace, who's to know what you did with it?
Just my 2 cents. Many Cheers, jp
