Robert,
you're going to get a few messages, I'm sure.

Since you are a music librarian, and copyright is a pretty complex matter,
may I suggest the Music Librarians Internet site and the following reference
to assist in clearing up any copyright questions you may have:

http://www.musiclibraryassoc.org/Copyright/copyhome.htm

In general - the fair use clause limits you to unsing not more than 10% of a
piece for educational purposes. It is probably the most problematic area of
copyright.

Copying because the "powers that be" are "too cheap" to replace parts is not
covered under fair use :^) I guess those powers are just not interested in
making any music, right?

Cheers,
Mark C.
