6. How Does This Affect The Campus? Confusion and concerns around copying and distributing text materials Course management systems and copyrighted material –Copyrighted materials on the professor’s site Electronic reserves DMCA The TEACH Act

7. Back to Basics: The Copyright Owner’s Exclusive Rights The right to reproduce the work The right to create a derivative work The right to distribute copies The right to perform the work publicly The right to display the work publicly

8. Fair Use Fair use factors - Section 107 –Purpose and character of the use –Nature of the copyrighted work –Amount and substantiality used –Market effect

9. What Is Fair Use In The Classroom? Classroom Guidelines give a “rule of thumb” for what can be distributed in the classroom without needing to obtain permission –A single copy, for research or teaching purposes, is permitted without first obtaining permission under certain circumstances –Multiple copies must meet tests of brevity, spontaneity, and cumulative effect –Each copy must include a notice of copyright –It is never permissible to make copies of consumable materials such as workbooks, tests and answer sheets

10. Classroom Teaching Traditional face-to-face teaching Covered under § 110 –All performances are allowed Videos, readings from text or poetry –All displays are allowed pictures, charts, graphs, still works

11. The TEACH Act DMCA (October 1998) –Report from Register of Copyright on Copyright and Digital Distance Education Technology, Education and Copyright Harmonization Act of 2002 (November 2, 2002) Amends sections 110(2) and 112 (f) of the Copyright Act Expand instructor rights

12. Posting Content Within a Course Management System Copyright requirements for CMS are similar to those for classroom handouts If the use is planned, repeated or involves works that one could reasonably expect to receive permission, permission must be obtained Digital or electronic content is subject to the same protections under the U.S. Copyright Act as non-digital, traditional or analog works

13. Best Practices and Guidelines Online doesn’t mean “free” Course management system postings require the same permissions as coursepacks Use article links Get permission before posting Passwords are a good start

43. Why We Chose to Investigate CCC’s Building Block Introduced to the Copyright Permissions Building Block at the Blackboard Building Block Developer’s Conference (July 2005). Suggested it to the Director of Educational Technology and it seemed like a good fit with the plagiarism detection products that were being proposed.

44. How We Implemented The Building Block Installed the Copyright Permissions Building Block (Test/Demo Version) in our Development environment After training sessions with CCC, our team reviewed it and it was decided to continue evaluation. CCC provided additional overview sessions with the Library staff. They seemed very interested in its features. Installed the Building Block in our Test environment. Conducted training session with 2 library representatives who are performing more detailed testing and analysis of demo system.

48. Lessons Learned/Challenges Learned how involved the implementation process is (evaluation, approval committees, installation, training) Due to many steps involved, feedback from other departments and committees is rather slow. Maintaining communications with CCC has also been helpful in working with Library department
