The Moving Image Archiving and Preservation Program (MIAP) at New York University is offering a summer course on copyright and intellectual property.
“This graduate-level course addresses the intellectual property issues and related ethical ones that surround the management, preservation, and dissemination of cultural material (such as paper records and their digital surrogates, museum objects, film, video, and other ephemera) in collecting institutions. The course is designed for current students and also for professionals who already work with cultural objects, providing either a refresher or an upgrade to existing knowledge and practice.”
Course description, contact, and enrollment information is available at:
