| Article | |
| Portion used |
The entire front cover. Because the image is a book cover, a form of product packaging, the entire image is needed to identify the product, properly convey the meaning and branding intended, and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the image. |
| Low resolution? |
The copy is of sufficient resolution for commentary and identification but lower resolution than the original book cover. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable as artwork on pirate versions or other uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original artwork. |
| Purpose of use |
Main infobox. The image is used for identification in the context of critical commentary of the work for which it serves as cover art. It makes a significant contribution to the user's understanding of the article, which could not practically be conveyed by words alone. The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the article discussing the work, to show the primary visual image associated with the work, and to help the user quickly identify the work and know they have found what they are looking for. Use for this purpose does not compete with the purposes of the original work, namely the book cover creator's ability to provide book cover design services and in turn marketing books to the public. |
| Replaceable? |
As a book cover, the image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows the packaging of the book would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary. Using a different image in the infobox would be misleading as to the identity of the work. |
| Other information |
Use of the book cover in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under United States copyright law as described above. |

Image Description edit

Fair use in The Archivist (book) edit
Though this image is subject to copyright, its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:
- The image is used as the primary means of visual identification of the article topic.
- The cover image alone of the novel is not going to tell the entire story of the novel, and so displaying a picture of the cover will not diminish sales of Cooley's novel.
- The cover, while unique and intriguing, is not an especially elaborate work of art, and will not be worth a great deal of money to someone who chooses to download or copy the image.
- The image was easily obtained from Amazon.com, which can be accessed on the free Internet, and so the cover image was, for all practical purposes, available already for public viewing before I uploaded this image.
- It is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted image of comparable educational value.
