In this http://www.artistshousemusic.org interview, Maggie Lange, an attorney and Professor of Music Business/Management at Berklee College of Music, explains how copyright term (that is, the duration for which a work remains under exclusive ownership) works, and sketches out some "fair use" exceptions to the five exclusive rights granted to copyright owners under law.

@GzusCriest In UK copies must be made by the RESEARCHER OR STUDENT himself
Quotes taken from Wikipedia, "Fair dealing" page deals with "Fair Use / Fair Dealing" for Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Singapore, South Africa, United Kingdom and the United States
Just 'cause a copyright holder is a US citizen doesn't mean that US copyright law applies to that work regardless of where you copy it
You're always subject to local law first as long as there's no international treaties regarding the issue

British law (under the provisions of section 29 of the CDPA) DOES NOT RESTRICT THE AMOUNT of a copyrighted work that may be copied for the purposes of non-commercial research or private study TO A "REASONABLE PORTION" of the work OR TO SINGLE COPIES of the work, where the copies are made by the researcher or student himself
In the UK you can use any amount of MATERIAL/COPIES you see fit PROVIDED it is "for the purposes of non-commercial research or private study"
In UK you answer only to UK laws
