FamilySearch Instruction Handout

Tamalyn Lively

Hi everyone, I am teaching a class at the end of this month at a family history conference on FamilySearch Mobile Apps. There is a great handout that FamilySearch has made, but I notice that it is copyrighted.

Can I print out this great handout to my class for the sole purpose of teaching about the mobile app, or do I need to get permission from someone. If so, who do I get permission from? Thanks for your help in advance.

@Tamalyn Lively In the help center is an article:

In it you will find this statement:

Family history materials produced by the Church may be copied for personal use or for Church instruction. For other uses, please get permission from the Family History Department at:

So, I guess it comes down to whether your conference qualifies as "church instruction". You might want to call or email the legal services folks just to be sure.
