Re: Copyright Newsletter for Librarians
I apologize for setting this message out in a number of listservs however I think it will of interest to you. There's a new publication that may be of interest to subscribers to this listserv. It's a print publication called The Copyright & New Media Law Newsletter: For Librarians & Information Specialists. Information on the newsletter states that it will deal with issues like photocopying, fair dealing/fair use and all those digital concerns to us like: -what is protected on the Internet -who is liable/responsible for the use of copyright materials -how exceptions and fair dealing/fair use apply to electronic media -licensing digital information -electronic inter-library loans -research on the Internet (browsing, downloading and printing materials on the Internet) -the use of computer software, CD-ROMs and databases -digitizing a library's collections -the effect of the two new international copyright agreements on librarians -changing copyright laws in countries around the world to deal with new media and the Internet -copyright policies in libraries. It's published three times a year in print and there's a list serv as well to inform subscribers of relevant issues between print versions. It promises to be practical and informative. Subscription prices are reasonable. The editor is a copyright lawyer and author of a book on copyright law -- information on her is at http://www.mcgrawhill.ca/copyrightlaw. In addition to looking for subscribers, the newsletter is interested in hearing from potential contributors.
