Hey, great @jayna. You're in a worthy occupation!

> One thing I don’t think I saw addressed was how much of a curated article you would want to include in a curated piece. I’m assuming that once you receive permission, you would want to intersperse excerpts with some commentary, and you wouldn’t reprint the original work in it’s entirety. Especially, of course, if you’re putting together a piece combining views from two or three different sources.

Good point. No, you wouldn't want to use the entire article for a source. How much depends on the article. If it's a really long article with several graphic pieces, you can get away with using more. If it's a short article, I wouldn't take more than a paragraph, or maybe even a sentence. You have to strike a balance between making your audience happy and feeding them useful content and respecting the moral rights to the work of the owner from whom you're borrowing. That's a very tricky thing.

And, of course, it is most certainly an art form to break up your long-form content with images, subheads, bullets, and the other elements of a good page. You're thinking along the right track!
