:topic: I have a question - Should it be considered as a violation of the copyright laws if any of the standards is copied verbatim in the Quality Manual or written in hand in one's personal notes given that the standard was borrowed from a public library?
Its so cheap at Bureau of Indian Standards - less than Rs 500 :)

Yes, it's very cheap and indeed I purchased a copy of ISO 9001:2008 from the BIS, New Delhi, just for Rs. 360 (approx. 7.5 US$) yet I raised the question so that, after knowing the facts, I don't make a mistake of violating (if it's deemed so) any copyright laws in future. This will also enable me to properly guide any innocent guy.

If you re-type the whole Std - I suggest it would be cheaper to simply purchase.
There are even simpler ways to avoid typing lengthy texts. Simply scan a document using 'Microsoft Office Document Imaging' (normally bundled with MS Office package) or any other similar software that can perform OCR (Optical Character Recognition) to directly convert a scanned document into an editable format such as MS Word, Excel spreadsheet etc. You can even scan and effortlessly convert large volumes of books into editable formats. Yet I believe it's cheaper to purchase (atleast, in India).

Thanks.
