sir

for research work only (means fair use)  there is no limit.

you can not copy even a single page for commercial purpose under the revised copy right law.

you have been listen the issue of Delhi University, commercial means not only buying, sealing but for preserving or copying to keep in library for users use like DU have done in a huge quantity are offence. please avoide to do alike. 

yes i agree with mr Ali 

Dear Sri Zaidy,

I have gone through your query but unfortunately could not make out what actually you have meant?

One can interpret it in the line of Mr. Arshad Ali. There is another query hidden inside which can be interpreted as LIFTING OF CONTENTS OF BOOKS/JOURNALS  in a research work (like writing a Theses) 

In case you have meant the second (this is a rather known practice in the COPY/PASTE age!!) However, in case you interpret the CONTENTS of any portion of any article or a chapter of a book, it is permissible. Because in this case you are ANALYZING the CONTENTS and providing your own interpretation. However, in case you are using VERBATIM any statement published elsewhere put it  under "quote " and mention the detailed reference in the footnote. But take care, never try to LIFT anything published earlier in any form without giving due credit to it. 

Sincerely,

Siddhartha S. Ray, Calcutta
