The development of new digital technologies has led to fundamental changes in the ways that cultural institutions fulfill their public missions of... access, preservation, research, and education. Many institutions are developing publicly-accessible websites in which users can visit online exhibitions, search collection databases, access images of collection items, and in some cases create their own digital content. Digitization, however, also raises the possibility of copyright infringement. It is imperative, therefore, that staff in libraries, archives, and museums have a good understanding of fundamental copyright principles and how institutional procedures can be affected by the law. Copyright and Cultural Institutions was written to assist understanding and compliance with copyright law. It discusses the basics of copyright law and the exclusive rights of the copyright owner, the major exemptions used by cultural heritage institutions, and stresses the importance of "risk assessment" when conducting any digitization project. Two cases studies (on digitizing oral histories and student work) are also included.

With stimulating questions and discussion problems, comprehensive notes, and teachable and well-edited cases as its hallmarks, this is the authoritative... law school casebook for the study of copyright law. The book presents up-to-date materials dealing both with new technologies and with the more traditional issues in the field. The increasingly important issue of secondary liability is represented by decisions in the Ninth Circuit and other courts subsequent to the Supreme Court's decision in MGM Studios, Inc. v. Grokster, Ltd. The book has similarly amplified the caselaw on the limited liability of internet service providers. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act's provisions on technological protection measures and copyright management information are also covered, through well-selected cases and analysis of successive Copyright Office Rulemakings. A revised and updated chapter on fair use traces the expansion of that doctrine in both the digital and the more traditional contexts. Other expanded topics include the evolving caselaw on copyright ownership and termination of transfers, the increasingly contentious policy issues underlying copyright formalities and the related problem of orphan works, contractual limitations on user prerogatives, and international issues. There will also be more photographs illustrating current cases dealing with originality and infringement. The casebook will continue its position as the outstanding book in the field-comprehensive and thorough, and stimulating and enjoyable for both teacher and students.

This jargon-free guide clarifies principles for applying copyright law to 21st-century education, discusses what is permissible in the classroom, and... explores the fair use of digital materials.
