Can I do a private import into OSM for my own use?

I would also like to import some map data for a book of family day trip destinations around Eastern Mass. I have about 200 GPS coordinates and I'd like to generate printable map sections for each destination. Can I just do a private import for my own use? Happy to let others use them. What's the best course of action?

No. OpenStreetMap is for verifiable data only.

But you can combine OSM data with your data on your own computer. You can use third-party programs such as Maperitive or Mapnik/TileMill to do this.

You can also use a third-party service such as uMap.
