An Introduction to Copyright, Fair Use, and Permissions

In academia, we frequently encounter copyright issues in research and teaching and this session will equip participants with tools and a foundation for navigating them. In this session, we will explore the length of copyright terms, probe fair use through case studies, and identify when and how to approach securing permissions for reuse of a copyrighted work. This session is led by Dan Meyer, Director of the Special Collections Research Center and University Archivist, and Nora Mattern, Scholarly Communications Librarian.
