> Subject: Press Release re Orphan Works Best Practices

> 
> ARLIS/NA list subscribers may be interested in the following press release:
> 
> CHICAGOThe Society of American Archivists (SAA) 
> has issued Orphan Works: Statement of Best 
> Practices, a 16-page report that provides what 
> professional archivists consider the best methods 
> to use when attempting to identify and locate 
> copyright holders. The statement, which primarily 
> focuses on unpublished materials because they are 
> usually found in archives, is available on the 
> associations website as a PDF at http://www.archivists.org/standards/.
> 
>              Orphan works is a term used to 
> describe the situation in which the owner of a 
> copyrighted work cannot be identified and located 
> by someone who wishes to make use of the work in 
> a manner that requires permission of the 
> copyright owner. Eight archivists and a 
> recognized legal expert in intellectual property 
> and copyright law developed the statement, based 
> upon their experiences researching copyright status.
> 
>            We created this statement to provide 
> archivists with a framework to discover what 
> materials they hold are truly orphaned works, and 
> in the hopes of empowering them to provide wider 
> access and use of those materials as a result, 
> said Heather Briston, chair of SAAs Intellectual Property Working Group.
> 
>              The primary authors of the statement 
> include Briston (University of Oregon), Mark 
> Allen Greene (University of Wyoming), Cathy 
> Henderson (University of Texas, Austin), Peter 
> Hirtle (Cornell University), Peter Jaszi 
> (American University) , William Maher (University 
> of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign), Aprille Cooke 
> McKay (University of Michigan), Richard 
> Pearce-Moses (Arizona State Library), and 
> Merrilee Proffitt (OCLC). Financial and 
> administrative support was provided for this 
> project by OCLC Research and the RLG Partnership.
> 
>            More information on SAAs Intellectual 
> Property Working Group can be found at:
