The textbook will have an Instructor's Manual. In general I have not found these very useful, but I tried to make a useful one for our new textbook. The Instructor's Manual contains more examples, suggestions for background reading and some test and study questions as well as classroom exercises and checklists for various things. It also contained a number of snappy quotes.
And that was the problem. The publisher is concerned about if these are "fair use." I think they are all obviously fair use, but just as a number of them got cut from the textbook, some are getting cut from the Instructor's Manual.
One of the most annoying cuts is that I cannot quote the Monty Python skit "the Argument." This seems like a classic, even necessary reference to make in an argument textbook. And it is over 40 years old. Does not seem like I'd be denying income to the group by quoting it. But, alas, it will have to go and be replaced by a reference to go look at it.
