IANAL but that probably falls under fair use? You'll get in trouble if you photocopy the work and sell access to it.

Copying entire books was added as an exception in 2005. You can still copy parts of a book. How large parts? I don't know, but I once asked for a copy from a library and they said that a few chapters was fine, so maybe that much (I am not a lawyer).
