I thought I would forward this to ARLIS-L as it includes best practices
and helpful criteria in determining fair use.
Best wishes,

The Dance Heritage Coalition has recently released a "Statement of Best
Practices in Fair Use of Dance-Related Materials: Recommendations for
Librarians, Archivists, Curators, and Other Collections Staff" in print
(32 pp) and on its website at
http://www.danceheritage.org/fairuse/DHC_fair_use_statement.pdf . One
of our members, Sylvia Curtis at UCSB, along with Genie Guerard of
UCLA's YRL Special Collections and former head of UCI Special
Collections Jackie Dooley, were involved in one of the eight regional
focus groups which contributed to the report. Although specific to
dance, the report is an excellent resource for information about
copyright in general and fair use in particular of performing arts
materials, both by patrons and especially by librarians in creating
exhibitions and websites, format migration and preservation, public
performance, etc.
