Fair Use Evaluator

"What this tool can do for you:

* Help you better understand how to determine the "fairness" of a use under the U.S. Copyright Code.
* Collect, organize & archive the information you might need to support a fair use evaluation.
* Provide you with a time-stamped, PDF document for your records [example], which could prove valuable, should you ever be asked by a copyright holder to provide your fair use evaluation and the data you used to support it. [why is this important?]
* Provide access to educational materials, external copyright resources, and contact information for copyright help at local & national levels."

Definitions of Copyright: What Do They Know? | Teaching Copyright

In this lesson, students will begin to explore the often-perplexing world of copyrights by defining the essential elements of U.S. copyright law. Beginning with the Copy Quiz game and a free-form class discussion, students will tease out collective and individual ideas about the rights of creators and users. Then students will be asked to reflect on their experiences making and using creative works online and write down the questions that they want answered by the end of the unit.

Beating the No U-Turn Syndrome: A New Approach to Teaching and Enforcing Copyright Compliance
For too long librarians have been seen as “copyright cops,” impeding the use of copyrighted materials by students and staff. This presentation suggests we redefine our roles, helping those we serve take maximum advantage of fair use provisions, finding authorities with a “user-centric” view of copyright enforcement, and teaching others to consider not just the legal, but moral side of intellectual property acquisition, use and re-use.
