Does anyone have any good examples of guides dealing with images, reproductions, fair use & permissions as they apply to master's theses in art history? We're putting one together specifically for our art history students, and the less we can re-invent the wheel, the better. The prof I'm working with plans to include the stuff below; I suggested adding Christine L. Sundt's "Copyright & Art Issues" web site (http://darkwing.uoregon.edu/~csundt/copyweb/)and the new book by Susan M. Bielstein,PERMISSIONS, A SURVIVAL GUIDE: BLUNT TALK ABOUT ART AS INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY(U of Chicago Press, 2006). Anything else you can recommend, or do you have a guide already done you'd be willing to share?
