Copyright in the Age of Anything Goes

Abstract

This panel will offer a scenario based approach to assist faculty and institutions in understanding copyright beginning with a brief overview of the origins and goals of the academic Fair Use doctrine with a focus on institutional responsibility for developing and applying protocols and procedures that address the doctrine. Topics covered by the panel will include: issues surrounding the recent copyright case against Georgia State University (including the impact of the court’s decision and how your institution can avoid the related pitfalls); an exploration of zero risk, bright-line copyright solutions; how to build a campus culture of compliance; and managing your college’s copyrights as an IP (intellectual property) creator. Sources and references related to institutional best practices will be provided
