Academic Impressions Webcast: Copyright and Faculty Rights


May 12, 2011 :: 1:00 - 2:30 p.m. EDT

Do you wish you knew more about how copyright and fair use laws apply to teaching and research?

How copyright and fair use laws apply to teaching is not always clear. The increasing ease of copying and distribution of digital materials raises the stakes even more. Faculty often do not have access to the resources and support they need to sort those challenges out.

Faculty, instructional support personnel, and other academic administrators are invited to join us online to understand the challenges and solutions of applying copyright law in your classrooms, curriculum, research, and scholarship.

FREE RESOURCE

Before the webcast, you will receive a summary of the relevant copyright statutes and regulations so that you can familiarize yourself with the law prior to participating.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

During the webcast our instructors will cover the following topics:

Ownership of copyrighted works
Copyright in your own works and publications
Steps to protect and manage your copyright
Publication agreements
Open content requirements
Institutional requirements and open access
Fair use - using and being used (including Google Books)
