Practical Copyright: Issues for
Academic, Archival, and Museum Libraries
David
Lehmann, Coleman Karesh Law Library, USC
This workshop is designed to educate
participants in the practice and pitfalls of copyright issues.
The focus of the workshop will be academic library issues, especially
course packs, which in light of the recent Georgia State Lawsuit is
becoming a topic that librarians must understand. Additionally,
we will review the sec. 108 copyright executive committee
recommendations for change for archives, libraries and museums.
This will be a practical look at copyright for librarians in practical
situations. We will look at copyright as it impacts digital media
and print media in a librarian's everyday environment.
Attendees will be guided through the process using real-like examples
to understand copyright problems and their solutions.
