We often see notices along with digital works that say something like this:

If the item is covered by copyright law and not a license , well, it’s covered by copyright law. And the library is often making restrictions or giving permissions that it has absolutely no right to make or give. In part, this is done to help the user; to let the user know what is and isn’t allowed. But this practice is somewhat dubious, and the information given to users may be incorrect.
