1.  You and others at your CSI-licensed institution may only use the CSI as often as you like, for as many years as you like, but only for studies of students within a CSI-licensed Institution.  In order to use the CSI to gather information from people who are not current or former students of a CSI-licensed institution, you must receive written permission from the TLT Group.  For example, if you are at one campus and wish to do a study of all students in the system of which your campus is a part, and if one or more campuses in your system have not licensed the CSI, you must first acquire a separate license for this study.  This study license is available for a separate fee, in addition to or instead of the standard license fee; the fee may be more or less than the standard site license fee, depending on the scope and numbers of studies you intend to do.

2.  You may make copies of the CSI and distribute such copies to any faculty, staff or student at Your Institution, provided such persons agree to use the CSI only in accordance with the terms of this Site License.  You may not give away, sell or otherwise distribute the CSI to anyone who is not faculty, staff or student at Your Institution.  Without limiting the foregoing, you may not give away, sell or otherwise distribute the CSI to a Non-Licensed Institution.

3.  You may post the CSI on Your Institution's Intranet, provided that only faculty, staff and students at Your Institution can access it.  You may not post the CSI on the Internet or other publicly available online service.

4.  You may publish studies that append the survey or interview protocols you created and used based on the CSI, but you may not publish any items from the CSI that were not included in such surveys or interview protocols.  In addition, in any and all such published studies, you must acknowledge your use of the CSI and the funding of the Annenberg/CPB Project, e.g., by including in your article or rept that "the survey instrument was created with the aid of the Flashlight Current Student Inventory, an evaluation tool kit that was developed with the aid of funding from the Annenberg/CPB Project.

5. Primary contact: Each CSI-licensed institution must identify a primary contact on the registration form.  The institution is responsible for notifying the TLT Group when information on the primary contact changes (e.g. the person's e-mail address changes, a new contact is named).  The primary contact person will receive all update information, and is responsible for transmitting this information to other Flashlight users at the institution.  The TLT Group will ask the contact person from time to time about findings from, and problems with, Flashlight use.

TERMINATION:

This Site License will automatically terminate if you commit a material breach of this Site License.  Any use of the CSI after such termination shall be deemed to be copyright infringement.

CONTACT INFORMATION:

If you have any questions or are interested in possibly obtaining additional rights to use CSI, please send e-mail to Flashlight@tltgroup.org .
