How can you tell if a work is Copyrighted? Legally, if you created it, you have a copyright Best guideline: if the work says so, e.g. with © © 1998 means created in 1998, copyright is for at least 50 years Good reference: http://www.whatiscopyright.org/ 12/30/2018

Copyright law Arguments for observing copyrights: Notice "promote the progress" in the constitution. Copyrights motivate artists and scientists to be creative Artists are not paid a salary, they are paid only if you pay them for each copy of their work. High salaries are rare and motivate struggling artists. So the argument that "artists make lots of money" doesn't make sense. 12/30/2018

Fair Use But I see short clips of copyrighted text, videos and music on the internet, and in classes. Isn't this a violation of copyright? No, because there's a Fair Use doctrine in the US copyright code that permits copying of copyrighted material based on four principles: the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes; the nature of the copyrighted work; the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; and the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work. http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/html/uscode17/usc_sec_17_00000107----000-.html 12/30/2018
