Rights and takedown
Safety Library indexes and links to material published by others. It hosts no publisher PDF, document, spreadsheet or other download file. What is stored here is each document’s title, reference, date, themes and a short summary, plus, for the publishers marked “full text searched” on the Publisherspage, the text of the document’s first pages. Summaries are the publisher’s own where the publisher supplies one and are otherwise written automatically from the title and document text; extracts of the first pages are stored and searchable only for publishers whose terms permit reproduction. We respect each publisher’s terms, link only to documents publicly listed by the publisher, and never link to files behind a login. Copyright in every document remains with its publisher.
