A use is more likely to be a fair use when it is used to advance an argument or is essential to comment and criticism, and when no more than what is needed to make the argument is used. A use is less likely to be a fair use when it is illustrative or decorative, or when large portions of the work are used. See the Copyright Education Initiative on Blackboard for more information on the public domain, fair use, Creative Commons, the permissions process, and example permission letters.
