NBISD Copyright Fair Use Guidelines

Movies
Currently all campuses have licensing to show movies through Movie Licensing USA . This allows a campus to show certain movies for rewards & entertainment.
Movies and clips of movies should always be used under fair use guidelines unless a license is purchased.
A new permission to show movies form has been created to support the code of best practices in fair use, and would only be needed for rewards & entertainment approvals. Clips for instructional use do not need approval and some educational versions of films can be purchased through the librarian.

Copying Materials
All copiers in the district should have a copyright notice posted, reminding users of their responsibilities.
As a district we need to be sure we are abiding by publishers’ permissions - not copying consumables, for instance, when the publisher intends for the district to purchase enough for each student each year.

So can we use copyrighted material??
Copyright instruction often leads to copy confusion! Renee Hobbs has created a slide show called Copyright Clarity: How Fair Use Supports Digital Learning.
A Code of Best Practices for Fair Use in Media Literacy Education simplifies and clarifies for teachers what they can do with copyrighted materials.
Specific fair use guidelines can be found for those who feel they need them, but remember they are guidelines only, not law.
