Is there a problem with copyright if I include a whole obituary (recent
decades) in reports and then distribute to other people?

I usually end up with them in two places: general notes and source text.
I
like them in the General Notes because they are interesting to read in the
reports, but since I usually use them as a source, I think they also
belong
in the source text.
It's redundant, I know -- but I haven't found a system I like any better
yet. I'll be interested in hearing what others do.
