Why does copyright and fair use matter for libraries and librarians?
This event features lawyers and librarians who will share historic and legal frameworks for copyright, provide helpful information about our rights to fair use, and give an understanding for how these concepts have (and have not) evolved within our rapidly evolving technological environment.
Panelists for this event include Nancy Sims, Copyright Program Librarian at University of Minnesota; Brandon Butler, Director, Information Policy at University of Virginia; Pia Hunter, Associate Director for Research and Instruction and Teaching Associate Professor, Law Library at University of Illinois; and Dave Hansen, Executive Director of Authors Alliance.
60-ish minutes of presentations will be followed by a 30-minute forum. Please come through to listen, find community, and participate in this necessary conversation.
This event is a co-production between METRO Library Council and Library Futures. Learn more about Library Futures at https://www.libraryfutures.net.
