Copyright, Fair Use, and Visual Images:
Unraveling the Needs of Artists, Scholars, Educators, and Librarians
Monday, December 8, 1997 -- 10:00-11:30 AM
IUPUI University Library Auditorium
A discussion session to address your questions and needs concerning
copyright and visual images, led by Kenneth D. Crews, Associate
Professor,
IU School of Law*Indianapolis, and IU School of Library Science, Director
of the Copyright Management Center.
The copyright and fair use issues associated with works of art,
photographs, and other visual images are highly problematic. Yet many
of
us at Indiana University regularly work with visual images in our
teaching,
research, and other duties. Libraries have maintained slide collections
for many years. Faculty members are mounting images onto websites
for
their classes. Archives and special collections seek to preserve visual
images in many formats. Historians depend upon the use of photographs
and
art for their scholarly work. These are only a few of the many ways
that
visual images are important in the work at Indiana University. But the
copyright implications of the ownership and fair use of visual images are
complex and sometimes bewildering. This session is an opportunity to
develop an analytical perspective on these issues and to explore
possibilities for how we may best advance our teaching and research
objectives in the context of existing copyright law.
We will also discuss the proposal for a new fair use policy at Indiana
University*and what it means to you.
