school library or classroom? If you are a school librarian or educator who is confused by copyright law, you’re not alone. School principals, superintendents, educators and librarians have specific questions about copyright law but often find themselves without
guidance on the subject.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

on Public Access to Information.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
