Book excerpt: "An invaluable resource giving librarians the tools to assess copyright issues, risks, and approaches both domestically and internationally." -Library Journal, Starred Review Finally: a plain-language guide to best practices for the complex world of copyright management in academic libraries. Copyright issues continue to perplex librarians and educators. The difficulties and confusion in applying the U.S. Copyright Act became especially apparent when Covid hit and many universities turned to remote learning as their primary method of instruction. Librarians and educators struggled with applying the law for both remote learners and students who were on site. This book provides advice on how to analyze and apply the copyright law to specific areas encountered by librarians and instructors. Coverage includes: Controlled digital lending is a very hot issue and confusing to many as to how copyright could apply in those situations remote learning do’s and don’ts’ is at the forefront of copyright concerns which was highlighted during the pandemic The application of copyright to music in light of recent changes to the U.S. Copyright Act has caused much confusion. Analysis of the new law and strategies on how to include music in a curriculum as well as how libraries can provide access and preservation of musical works. Open access initiatives have become increasingly popular. However, open access does not mean that there is no copyright attached to the works. The use of data is exploding as are the copyright issues associated with it. We will examine the issues and provide options. Written by Donna L. Ferullo, the Director of the University Copyright Office at Purdue University who holds both law and library science degrees and Dwayne K. Buttler, the Evelyn J. Schneider Endowed Chair for Scholarly Communication at the University of Louisville, who also holds a law degree. Both Ferullo and Buttler have many years of experience advising their universities on copyright law.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book advances the belief that the library--more than any other cultural institution--collects, curates and distributes the results of human thought. Essays broaden the debate about academic libraries beyond only professional circles, promoting the library as a vital resource for the whole of higher education. Topics range from library histories to explorations of changing media. Essayists connect modern libraries to the remarkable dream of Alexandria's ancient library--facilitating groundbreaking research in every imaginable field of human interest, past, present and future. Academic librarians who are most familiar with historical traditions are best qualified to promote the library as an important aspect of teaching and learning, as well as to develop resources that will enlighten future generations of readers. The intellectual tools for compelling, constructive conversation come from the narrative of the library in its many iterations, from the largest research university to the smallest liberal arts or community college.
