1Does anyone know what to do?Copyright and Fair Use

2Copyright Act of 1976Fair Use statute Digital Millenium Copyright Act (DMCA) 1998Classroom Guidelines 19763FAIR USE Act 2007 TEACH Act 2002Sonny Bono Act 19984Copyright Law 1976Does not provide specific answers for most questions librarians may have.Much depends on policy positions of individual institutions.5Fair Use statute Allowed use of copyrighted material under limited conditions 6Small portions Education, commentary, criticism, news reporting, parody Fair Use statute 7GREY AREAS!Educational institutions believed they were exempt and could make multiple copies.Fair use is decided on a case-by-case basis.8Educational institutions were hard to sue. Plaintiff had to show school made a profit.Most copies were just handed out in class. It wasnt worth suing.9Schools messed up when they began selling custom-made anthologies in the campus bookstore.$$$$$10Classroom Guidelines 1976 Not law, simply footnotes to the law Fair use too broad; CG meant to give boundaries for safetyClassroom Guidelines were too narrow and unrealistic11DMCA 1998 Criminalize attempts to circumvent digital measures that protect copyrighted works

12Sonny Bono Act 1998

Extended the life of copyright by 20 years 13Disney

14TEACH Act 2002Tried to define terms for distance learning and streaming media.Revised a section of copyright law from 132 words to 728.

15TEACH Act 2002Schools and libraries paid for license rights they already had just to be safe.Demands technology safeguards some schools cant afford.16TEACH Act 2002Some places were already safeguarding or were covered under fair use.Its a law but you dont have to do it.17FAIR USE Act 2007 Tries to clarify fair use and not enforce DMCALast actionMarch 07 in congressional subcommittee18The days of Noah?Educational policies, state laws, and unresolved cases in higher courts have left people wondering.19The days of Noah?Copyright totalitarianismCopyright anarchy

20Laws that can be enforced and bring profits will stay.People will ignore laws they find restrictive or unfair and the industry will change.The balance may play out.21Classroom Guidelines should lighten up.Educational institutions as large organizations with money can be held accountable (not teachers).22Final thoughtsFair use is the dominant idea.GREY AREASCase-by-case23Fair use came before the digital ageandcertainly did not anticipate social networkingorunlimited access to media and instant transmission of perfect copies.

24Final thoughtsLots of media, all over, really fastWe now have mixability.25Young people figure if its out there and they can get it, they will.File sharingNapsterFinal thoughts26So what do we do?How do we think Christianly about copyright in the classroom?Discuss with students.Model ethical behavior.Make full effort to give credit.27Authors and artists have a right to their work.People build on the works of others, often as a tribute.
