For the Court's reference, Plaintiffs also provide copies of the injunctive relief afforded by courts in the following analogous cases involving unauthorized copying and distribution of paper coursepacks to university students: a) The injunction entered by the court in Basic Books, Inc. v. Kinko’s Graphics Corp., NO. 89 CIV. 2807 (CBM), 1991 WL 311892 (S.D.N.Y. Oct. 16, 1991) (Exhibit 2 hereto). 878502.1 b) The injunction entered by the court in Princeton University Press v.

New York University, No. 82 CIV 8333 (ADS), 1983 WL 1134 (S.D.N.Y. May 31, 1983) (Exhibit 4 hereto). While the injunction addresses future conduct on the part of the campus copy shop defendant, Exhibit C to that consent order is a copy of New York University’s “Policy Statement on Photocopying of Copyrighted Materials for Classroom and Research Use” adopted in response to that litigation, to which NYU also was a defendant.
