sectionheader ON-DEMAND: Libraries and Copyright in the Digital Age  
 

Overview:

Copyright law affects the lives of faculty, scholars, researchers, and other library users today in unprecedented ways. Standard library activities, such as interlibrary loan, raise concerns for copyright holders, and yet the Copyright Act of 1976 recognized ILL as a legitimate library activity within certain parameters. The law is dated and libraries struggle to comply with its provisions while still serving their use communities.

A leading copyright law expert discusses Section 108 of the US Copyright Act, which applies to limitations and exclusive rights of digitization and reproduction of library materials and archives. In this on-demand session, topics include:

  • Providing photocopies to users
  • Providing digital copies to users
  • Preserving analog works
  • Licensing's impact on the library exceptions
  • Interlibrary loan in the 21st century

Target Audience:

Librarians will learn how to identify policy issues and identify strategies for developing library policies that deal with digital issues and reproduction.

When our participants were asked what they found most helpful from this webcast, they said:

"This web conference tackled the difficult topic of copyright in a world of changing technology. It provided an opportunity to acquire a basic knowledge – and the potential landmines – of the copyright law. Extremely valuable." –Nancy Walton, State Library Programs Specialist, State Library Services

"This was one of the most engaging web conferences I have participated in. The conversational yet professional style of the presentation was perfect and made a potentially dry and confusing topic very interesting." –Debby Emerson, Assistant Director, Rochester Regional Library Council

"Very focused and well organized presentation, although as far as copyright issues go, librarians are always wishing for MORE. But the specific goals of the presentation were achieved and I am already planning to redesign our ILL forms to reflect what I learned."

"The presenter was knowledgeable and responsive to questions. I've already recommended this web conference to a colleague." –Flora Lowe, Library Director, Ashford University
