Does the postgraduate training institution infringe the copyright of the publishing house by buying examination books from a third party for students who pay money?
Postgraduate entrance examination training institutions buy exam books from third parties for students who pay money, which infringes the copyright of publishing houses, and the authors of the books can defend their rights.

The act of providing pirated teaching materials by training institutions after charging training fees has infringed the plaintiff's right to distribute the books involved, which does not belong to the "translation and reproduction of published works for classroom teaching or scientific research in schools and for the use of teaching or scientific researchers" as stipulated in Item 6, Paragraph 1, Article 22 of the Copyright Law of People's Republic of China (PRC).

Copyright law limits the subject of "fair use" of classroom teaching to "teaching or scientific research personnel", excluding "commercial training institutions", and also limits the mode of use, which can only be "translation or a small amount of reproduction". Training institutions lack the necessary audit on the source of purchasing training materials, ignore the legitimate rights and interests of copyright owners, and should bear civil liabilities such as stopping infringement and compensating losses.
