Copyright Futures In The Digital Humanities, Laura Quilter

Laura Quilter

This discussion, facilitated by Laura Quilter, UMass Copyright and Information Policy Librarian, will address the issues raised in copyright litigation, particularly the Authors Guild v.

1i - How Fair Use Can Help Solve The Orphan Works Problem, Jennifer Urban

New England Copyright Boot Camp

Used in Foundational Copyright (Dec. 1 Boston; Dec. 15 Amherst)
