Whether or not it's actually legal, I don't know. But someone once said (it may
have been Mark Twain)
"if you copy from one source, it's theft; if you copy from two it's research."
If you do make this collection available and list a bibliography, would that be
so much different from writing a term paper or thesis? And if it's not so
different, what are the legal implications of passing around copies of a term
paper or thesis?
