Copyright. The very word can make an archivist’s eyes glaze over. But this book is here to help. Fear of copyright can sometimes make everything an archivist does—preservation, reference, digitization—feel like a prelude to an unintended lawsuit.In this book, readers learn core parts of the U.S. copyright law, how to apply basic tools to address archives-specific issues, and learn effective use of existing exceptions and limitations. The goal is to provide archivists with the ability to navigate copyright to achieve the ultimate archival mission: to preserve the broadest array of heritage material and enable as wide a use as possible.This book:· Provides a foundation for how to read the copyright law, review legal literature, and navigate authoritative websites and news sources;· Promotes a clear understanding of the separate rights of authors, owners, and users and how these rights relate to institutional and general cultural archives;· Clarifies the relevance of the historical landmarks in copyright legislation and case law;· Outlines the basics of related laws and rights regimes (e.g., privacy, publicity, moral, and cultural property rights) to understand when and how copyright does and does not relate to them;· Surveys recent legislation and court cases, especially those relating to fair use, sound-recordings, and alternative dispute resolution; and· Guides archivists in a multi-factor analysis to support the decisions needed to manage copyright issues and risks.
