Copyright for Teachers and Librarians

You bring print, electronic, and Web sources to life for your students and others every day. To make sure you're staying legal at the same time, here's the one source you need to keep you out of trouble. In this practical handbook, you'll find clear explanations of fair use, public domain, documentation and licenses, permissions, violations and penalties, policies and ethics codes, citation, creation and ownership, even how to register copyrights. Keep current on copyright considerations for traditional and non-traditional media, including the Web, television, videos and DVDs, computer software, music, distance education courses and material, as well as books, magazines, and journals. A Q&A section offers guidance about the often bewildering and complicated issues surrounding copyright law.
