• Limit any copy made under section 29-4 to one made by a person permitted to use the work, solely for a study not for commercial advantage, to make a computational analysis of the data recorded in it, and do not rely on the quotation exception, the informational-purpose exception, or the personal-use reproduction exception to reproduce a full copyrighted work, or the whole or a substantial part of a database, to train a model.
• Reproducing a newspaper or periodical article on current economic, social or religious topics, or a short excerpt of a work for reporting a current event, is permitted without authorization only with the author identified and the source disclosed as far as possible, and only where the author or copyright owner has not stated in advance that it may not be used without permission.

• Reproducing the whole or a substantial part of an original database, one that is original in its selection or arrangement, without authorization is not covered by any exception described here.
