Chronicle (May 29, 2011)This is an interview with a lawyer / librarian who specializes in copyright issues at an academic library.

Library Journal - ACRL 2011: A Rallying Cry for Leadership and Risk Taking in the Copyright Wars, (April 2011) Two papers presented at the recent 2011 Association of College and Research Libraries Conference in Philadelphia drove home the shaky use and understanding of copyright law on university campuses. 7. Copyright and Technology--"Are Libraries Locked Out of the E-Book World?" (February 27, 2011) The section of the copyright law (Section 108) that might allow libraries to purchase and lend e-books doesnt work at the moment because major publishers require digital rights management software on their digital titles, which means libraries are licensing the titles. 8. ."Libraries, Library Workers, & Copyright Matters," YouTube, (Feb 24, 2011) Loida Garcia-Febo, Chair of the ALA Intellectual Freedom Round Table talks to Jim Neal about libraries, library workers and copyright matters. Jim Neal is the Vice President for Information Services and University Librarian at Columbia University in the City of New York. 9. Digitization and Democracy: The Conflict Between the Amazon kindle License Agreement and the Role of Libraries in a Free Society (12/23/2010) The article makes a compelling argument on behalf of libraries for changing the current Copyright Law. 10. The Section 108 Study Group Report, 2008: Independent Report sponsored by The United States Copyright Office and the National Digital Information Infrastructure and Preservation Program of the Library of Congress. (March 2008)This group included lawyers, representatives of media and software companies, publishers, and academic librarians, and worked on this report for 3 years. While the report lays out the law and the issues clearly, the groups recommendations were based on consensus, which meant that recommendations like this one were typical: Although all agreed that the role of libraries and archives in preserving copyrightable works is a matter of national concern, there was no agreement on whether a recommendation in this area was needed, and, if so, what kind of recommendation would be appropriate.
