The MIT Libraries have signed a contract with Taylor & Francis that allows for use of material from the CRC ENGnetBASE engineering e-book collection in MITx courses without need for permission.
The agreement allows for use of “reasonable portions” of figures, tables, images, illustrations, and other information in MITx courses for educational, scientific, or research purposes — for example in explanation, example, comment, criticism, teaching, research, or analysis.
