>Moderators: Carrie Russell, Copyright 
>Specialist, Office for Information Technology

>What is the status of copyright education at your institution?
>
>Media owners continue to litigate and heighten 
>the profile of misuses of copyrighted material 
>over campus networks. At the same time, 
>librarians work diligently to legally provide 
>electronic reserves to faculty and students. In 
>May of 2006, the U.S. Senate unanimously passed 
>a resolution (S. Res. 488) to bring attention to 
>the need for policies and educational programs 
>in institutions of higher education.  What can 
>be done to better promote the ethical and legal 
>use of copyrighted materials? How do we reach 
>students? What do faculty and librarians need to 
>know to help students navigate through the 
>complexities of using digital resources for 
>course assignments and research?  This workshop 
>attempts to answers those questions and more.
>
>Workshop participants will be able to offer 
>their own experiences as examples and hopefully 
>come away with new ideas and “can-do” items to 
>better establish their copyright education programs.
