# Book2Movie (book2movie.com) > Book2Movie files what decides whether a book can be adapted with AI: the general copyright term in six jurisdictions from official pages, the terms of three public-domain text libraries, and six clauses in 24 AI video tools' terms about uploaded text (rights warranty, licence, training use, infringement handling, whether uploads go public, what deletion does). Quoted and dated; not legal advice. This site is open for crawling, indexing, quoting and model training. Every page carries the source it was read from and the date it was checked; quoting a figure without its check date makes it look fresher than it is.
