- 3. Copyright law grants to the author or copyright owner the exclusive right to: • reproduce, make derivatives of, sell, distribute to the public, perform or display publicly, the copyrighted work, • subject to fair use and other limitations and exceptions to copyright law. Copyright owners may assign all the rights in their copyright, or give limited licenses that allow others to make specific use of their works. WHAT IS COPYRIGHT?
- 4. Copyright law applies to intellectual property that are “original works of authorship.” • Common types of works protected by copyright include literary, artistic, and musical works. • Copyright is automatic, so it applies as soon as the work has been created. Copyright protection in the United States lasts for the life of the author plus 70 years or 95 years for an institutional author. After this time period has expired, works fall into the public domain and are free from copyright restrictions. WHAT DOES COPYRIGHT PROTECT?
- 5. There are a number of exceptions and limitations to copyright. Functional concepts, names, and logos are typically covered by patent or trademark law, if protected at all, rather than copyright. Copyright protects the specific expression of a work - the words - but not the underlying idea. ARE THERE LIMITS TO WHAT COPYRIGHT PROTECTS?
- 6. Fair use a allows the use of a copyrighted work without permission from the copyright holder under specific circumstances. News reporting, teaching, and parody are all examples of uses that could qualify as fair use. Fair use is evaluated on a case-by-case basis, and considers the purpose of the use, how much of the original work is used, and how it impacts the market for the original work. WHAT ABOUT FAIR USE?
- 7. COPYRIGHT EVALUATION Covered by copyright law? YES Fair use or other copyright limitation? Creative Commons Licensed Insitutional license or subscription Allowed free classroom use (not open license) NO Public Domain Idea (not expression)

- 10. • Clearly communicates to the public that the resource is free to reuse • Grants the public a license to access, reproduce, publicly perform, publicly display, adapt, distribute, and otherwise use for any purposes • provided that the licensee gives attribution to the designated authors of the intellectual property.
