  • US copyright basics

purpose of copyright. US Constitution, Article 1, Section B
To promote the progress of science and useful arts, by securing for limited times…”

US copyright law protects the rights of authors of “original works of authorship”

106 exclusive rights of the rights holder. 5 exclusive rights: reproduction; distribution of copies ; create a derivative work; perform publicly; display publicly.

After 1978 (70 years rule, after author’s death), the author has copyrights
Works for hire, anonymous, 95 years from publication, 120 years

public domain: works of the US federal government when used in the US.
works published before 1926; from 1926 to 1963 failed to register or renew copyright registration; prior to 1989 and failed to include copyright notice

OER: logistical nightmare; open doesn’t always mean free; fair use may not apply; copyright permissions may be difficult and expensive

copyright registration : creates a searchable public record; required to sue for infringement
copyright notice: not required but recommended; copyright registration not required to display the copyright symbol (since 1989).

attribution: not a substitute for permission

public domain: does not mean “publicly available”

copyright infringement

US Code Title 17, Chapter 1 # 101 #107 3108 #109 #110 #122

Fair Use: it is a legal defense. attempt to balance rights of
4 Fair Use factors considered by courts. it can be slippery slope

#108 reproduction by libraries and archives. exemptions ILL and coped for patrons. Digital copies for library’s own use . for preservation and replacement. No more then a single copy per patron. also limitations on types of materials.

Q&A:
Is copyright permission needed for URL use in the classroom? If so, what are the best methods for obtaining copyright permission for URLs?

What solutions does CCC provide for libraries wanting to provide electronic article access to students for their courses for material they don’t subscribe to.

How can one found out if one’s library is covered by a campus-wide license.

I am working with a student who would like to include figures from published academic articles and books in his dissertation. If he is not able to obtain permissions before the due date, does it seem like this would fall under fair use for academic purposes (not publishing or profit)? Thank you.

How does controlled digital lending (CDL) operate in an academic environment. Can you digitize an analog book owned by the library for posting in Moodle to support distance learning?

How can a user know what is and what is not the core of the document? or Book?

What about providing a link to an article or other material that is publicly available when you click on the link? How/why is that different from printing it and distributing it?

Can an author send her article to participants in the journal club? (journal not subscribed to by library or attendees).

Coursetune on Future Trends

This week we’re diving into technology and its impact on higher education with the help of a terrific guest.  On Thursday, October 1st, from 2-3 pm EDT, we’ll be joined by Maria Anderson, math professor, futurist, entrepreneur, and previous Forum guest.
Maria is the principal consultant at Edge of Learning and the CEO and Cofounder of Coursetune, an edtech company that builds curriculum design, management, visualization, and collaboration software.

Previously, Maria has been the Director of Learning and Research for Instructure. For ten years she taught mathematics as well as chemistry and social media  full-time at Muskegon Community College.  She was also the Learning Futurist for the LIFT Institute.

I plan on asking Maria about how campuses are using new and emerging technology to improve online or blended learning this fall.  Which technologies have moved to the forefront in this pandemic semester?

And, as always, you will have the chance to ask your own questions. After all, the way the Forum works is that all attendees can ask our guests questions, engage and collaborate with other leaders in education technology, and also invite friends and colleagues to join.

To RSVP ahead of time, or to jump straight in at 2 pm EDT this Thursday, click here:
