Legal
BlueBook is a student-built course reference site. This page is the plain-language legal notice for the site.
What this site is
BlueBook is an unofficial project built by a student for students. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or operated by Duke University.
What this site is for
This site is for students who want a simpler way to browse historical course information and student feedback. It is meant to help with general course research, not to replace official Duke sources.
Money and intent
As currently operated, BlueBook is a non-commercial student project. We do not charge users, sell access, or run ads on the site.
About the content
Course and instructor information is shown as reference material. Student evaluation comments shown on course pages are source comments; BlueBook does not write those comments. Some other parts of the site, such as summaries or feedback analysis, are generated to make browsing easier and should be treated as convenience layers, not as the source material itself.
Reference only
Everything on BlueBook should be treated as reference information only. Course availability, instructor assignments, requirements, policies, and official academic guidance should always be confirmed through Duke's official systems and departments.
No guarantee
Historical data can be incomplete, out of date, or missing context. BlueBook makes no guarantee that everything shown is complete, current, or error-free.
Names and rights
Duke names, course titles, instructor names, and third-party marks are used for identification only and belong to their respective owners. The BlueBook code, design, and original site copy belong to this project unless stated otherwise.
Problems or corrections
If something on the site is inaccurate, invasive, or should be taken down, we will review it. If a contact address is published for the site, use that address for correction, privacy, or takedown requests.
