Defining Fair Use

Fair Use Applies to all types of media

To give certain users conditional permission to use copyrighted materials if certain criteria are met

•Developed following focus group discussions with library, media, media literacy, and other educators nationwide.

•Recommended to be used in conjunction with Fair Use Guidelines.

•Must still, ultimately, obey the Copyright Law.

•Think of the transformative naturetransformative nature of the student’s or teacher’s work when considering whether the proposed task is copyright compliant.

4 Factors of Fair Use

What is the purpose? Will the materials be used for commercial purposes or for nonprofit, educational purposes?

What is the nature of the publication? Highly creative works have more protection.

How much is being used? What is the effect on the market?

Multimedia Projects

Student Use Students may use copyrighted works in

multimedia projects. Students may perform and display multimedia

projects for academic assignments. Students may include their multimedia projects

in electronic portfolios for assessment purposes.

Students may not post or display their works in public venues without permission from the copyright owners.

Faculty may incorporate copyrighted works into multimedia creations to create curriculum materials.

Faculty may demonstrate multimedia creations at professional conferences and retain for professional portfolios. (caution: Fair Use does not give teachers the right to distribute the copyright-protected materials.)

Time limit on fair use is 2 years from completion of work.

Managing Copyright

The Library Media Specialist is an information resource regarding copyright.

The Principal is ultimately responsible for copyright compliance in the school.

The Principal should facilitate establishing a copyright policy for the school.

An annual copyright in-service should be conducted for faculty/staff.

Everyone should notify principal of known infractions

Can't know everything - But… Can show that you are

complying to the best of your ability

Attribution

You let others copy, distribute, display, and perform your copyrighted work — and derivative works based upon it — but only if they give credit the way you request.

This is the most accommodating of licenses offered, in terms of what others can do with your works licensed under Attribution.

Attribution by Share Alike

You allow others to distribute derivative works only under a license identical to the license that governs your work.

This license lets others remix, tweak, and build upon your work even for commercial reasons, as long as they credit you and license their new creations under the identical terms.

This license is often compared to open source software licenses. All new works based on yours will carry the same license, so any derivatives will also allow commercial use.

Attribution No Derivatives

You let others copy, distribute, display, and perform only verbatim copies of your work, not derivative works based upon it.

This license allows for redistribution, commercial and non-commercial, as long as it is passed along unchanged and in whole, with credit to you.

Attribution Non-Commercial

You let others copy, distribute, display, and perform your work — and derivative works based upon it — but for non-commercial purposes only.

This license lets others remix, tweak, and build upon your work non-commercially, and although their new works must also acknowledge you and be non-commercial, they don’t have to license their derivative works on the same terms.

Points to Consider

Where are you creating instructional materials?

What equipment are you using? When are you creating these

instructional resources? What software are you using? Why is this important?Why is this important?

What do you think? Compliance or Non-Compliance?

Scenario 1

A teacher wants to use material from a book published in 1974. Although she and the media specialist have tried to contact the publisher, they have received no response. The publisher has not been purchased by another company. Is it acceptable to consider the material in the public domain and allow the teacher to use it?

Scenario 2

During National Poetry Month, the media specialist posts poems throughout the school. Each poem includes the appropriate bibliographic citation. Some poems come from old books and other have been photocopied or re-typed to make it easier to read. Is this legal?

Scenario 3

The school has a computer program that the teachers and students really like. It’s been discontinued so no additional licenses are available for purchase even though the school would be willing to do so. How can they con-tinue to use this program as newer machines are being added?

Scenario 4

Several teachers would like to copy school-owned VHS videotapes onto DVDs to use with their computers. Is there a copyright issue?

Scenario 5

Most tour buses have TVs and DVD players for students to watch movies while on the bus. Would this be considered “fair use”?
