Theme: "US Copyright Law and Fair Use"
Speaker:  Sandra Aya Enimil, head of the Copyright Resource Center at The Ohio State University Libraries. 

Enimil will give information on copyright law in the US and provide insight into fair use. Fair use and other exceptions provided to libraries and archives under the United States Copyright Act will also be discussed in depth. Fair use frequently functions as an exemption to the copyright law for educational and socially important purposes such as teaching, research, criticism, commentary, parody, and news reporting. There will also be discussion on the history of copyright, using copyright-protected work and the public domain.
