Understanding copyright concepts like the public domain, fair use, and licensing is essential to creating, using, and sharing digital content. This session includes an update on case law that may impact the applicability of fair use in digitization, some exploration of Creative Commons licenses and other contracts that affect copyright-like concerns, and an introduction to new standards in development for communicating copyright status of digital objects to patrons. There will be opportunities for interactive discussion, to make this session valuable for novices and experienced practitioners alike.
