Business cases are published works licensed from the publishers and fall outside of the rules for other media. Copyright permissions need to be purchased for each individual who will be using a case. Cases can be purchased through the Babson College bookstore or check the library Case Studies to learn how to purchase them yourself. The Bookstore has an arrangement with Harvard Business School for its cases.
No, you cannot make a copy of a case. Since copyright permissions need to be purchased for each individual who will be using the case, they are not available online and the library does not own any. Cases can be purchased through the bookstore, which has an arrangement with the HBS and Babson to photocopy and distribute cases, or you can find information on the library website on how to purchase them yourself. For Babson cases, you can also contact David Wylie, Editor, Case Publishing, Case Writing Center, x6181, wylie@babson.edu.
