>Purpose and Overview:
>This two-day Copyright Workshop for directors and librarians in
>research and academic libraries will be held on September 19 - 20,
>1996.  The goals of the workshop are to:
>
>       1)      provide a foundation for understanding the U.S.
>copyright law and related guidelines and court cases;
>
>       2)      update librarians about copyright in the print and

>       3)      contribute to educational efforts to increase copyright
>awareness within the North American higher education and research
>communities.

>Day One will provide the conceptual framework of U.S. copyright,
>review in detail the law, related guidelines, key legal cases, and
>anticipated legislative changes. Day One will also include an
>overview of the framework of a university copyright policy,
>including an examination of the university and/or faculty
>ownership of faculty works and the impact of technology on those
>policies.  The day will conclude with a case study of developing a
>copyright awareness program within a research institution.
>
>Day Two moves participants from the conceptual framework to the
>application of copyright  by beginning with a facilitated
>discussion of the tensions between holders and users of
>copyrighted materials.  Breakout sessions will encourage
>participants to engage in focused discussions on the impact of
>copyright and licensing on the following library functions or
>collections: electronic reserves, interlibrary loan, preservation,
>database licensing, distance education, multimedia, software,
>special collections/archives/images, and Web sites, as well as
