Hyperlinking in HTML for the Web

An HTML hyperlink ("link") connects to another Web page or another portion of the same Web page. While not a copyright violation to create a link, it is a violation of the law to create a link that contributes to unauthorized copying of a copyrighted work if you know or had reason to know of the unauthorized copying and encouraged it. This includes linking to a site that allows unauthorized copying. While you do not have a direct link for copying on YOUR site, linking to a site that does is still considered infringement by you. Take care in the choice of sites for which you place a link on your page(s).
