Problem: Educational Use Guidelines are Confusing! NEGOTIATED AGREEMENTS BETWEEN MEDIA COMPANIES AND EDUCATIONAL GROUPS Agreement on Guidelines for Classroom Copying in Not-for-Profit Educational Institutions Fair Use Guidelines for Educational Multimedia Guidelines for the Educational Use of Music

The documents created by these negotiated agreements give them “the appearance of positive law. These qualities are merely illusory, and consequently the guidelines have had a seriously detrimental effect. They interfere with an actual understanding of the law and erode confidence in the law as created by Congress and the courts” --Kenneth Crews, 2001 Educational Use Guidelinesare NOT the Law!

It’s time to replace old knowledge with accurate knowledge

--Section 107 Copyright Act of 1976 The Doctrine of Fair Use

The Doctrine of Fair Use “It not only allows but encourages socially beneficial uses of copyrighted works such as teaching, learning, and scholarship. Without fair use, those beneficial uses— quoting from copyrighted works, providing multiple copies to students in class, creating new knowledge based on previously published knowledge—would be infringements. Fair use is the means for assuring a robust and vigorous exchange of copyrighted information.” --Carrie Russell, American Library Association

Reflects the “best practices” of educators who use copyrighted material to build critical thinking and communication skills

Five Principles Code of Best Practices in Fair Use Educators can: make copies of newspaper articles, TV shows, and other copyrighted works and use them and keep them for educational use create curriculum materials and scholarship with copyrighted materials embedded share, sell and distribute curriculum materials with copyrighted materials embedded Learners can: use copyrighted works in creating new material distribute their works digitally if they meet the transformativeness standard

Transformative Use is Fair Use When a user of copyrighted materials adds value to, or repurposes materials for a use different from that for which it was originally intended, it will likely be considered transformative use; it will also likely be considered fair use. Fair use embraces the modifying of existing media content, placing it in new context. --Joyce Valenza, School Library Journal

Bill Graham Archives vs. Dorling Kindersley, Ltd. (2006)

An Example of Transformative Use The purpose of the original: To generate publicity for a concert. The purpose of the new work: To document and illustrate the concert events in historical context.

Fair use allows limited use of copyrighted works for purposes like criticism, commentary, news reporting, teaching, and research. Infringing on a copyright can result in fines of up to $150,000 per work. Works enter the public domain when copyright expires or if created by the US government. To register a copyright, submit an application, fee, and copies of the work to the US Copyright Office.

While copyright protects against direct copying, the fair use doctrine allows limited use without permission for purposes like commentary, criticism and education. Educational fair use guidelines provide standards for permissible copying of copyrighted materials for classroom use.
