The document summarizes the rights of readers that are lost when transitioning from print books to ebooks. Specifically, it discusses how digital rights management (DRM) requires readers to give up rights they traditionally held with print books, such as the ability to archive, transfer, and create paper copies of purchased ebooks. It proposes a Readers' Bill of Rights for digital books that guarantees readers the ability to retain, archive, and transfer purchased ebooks across different hardware without restrictions on the format or device used to read. The document concludes by discussing the implications of DRM and digital rights for libraries and their collections.

LACUNY-The Rights of Readers and the Threat of the Kindle
This document discusses the rights of readers with digital books compared to print books. With digital books, readers currently give up rights they have with print, such as the ability to archive, transfer, and create paper copies of purchased materials. The document proposes a Readers' Bill of Rights for digital books that guarantees the same rights for digital readers that print readers already have. These include the right to retain, archive and transfer materials. The document also discusses concerns about digital rights management and how it can treat digital purchases as rentals rather than purchases. It argues that digital books could still be appealing without digital rights management restrictions on readers.
Copyright and lopez 1
The document discusses copyright and how to properly use copyrighted material. It explains that copyright protects original creative works from being copied without permission. There are symbols and notices that indicate if a work is copyrighted. While some educational use of copyrighted content is allowed, permission is required for commercial use and it is important to credit the original source. The key rules are to determine who owns the copyright, request written permission from the owner, and properly cite the source.
Copyright 03 28 12
This document discusses copyright and how to properly use copyrighted material. It explains that copyright protects original creative works from being passed off as someone else's work. It also outlines how to identify copyrighted works and that publishers obtain copyrights to notify the U.S. Copyright Office. The rules for using copyrighted material depend on whether it is used for educational or commercial purposes, and permission from the copyright owner is typically required.
Chapter8
The document discusses copyright and ownership of creative works. It explains that the author or creator usually owns the copyright unless they were hired to produce the work. It also describes exceptions like the TEACH Act that allow for educational use of copyrighted materials. Fair use is discussed as well, which allows limited use of others' works without permission. The importance of determining ownership and obtaining proper permissions is emphasized when using or sharing copyrighted content.
2nd modification
The document discusses copyright and ownership of published works. It explains that the author owns what they write or create unless they were hired by someone else. It also discusses the TEACH Act, which provides educators rights to display and perform copyrighted works in the classroom. Fair use allows limited use of copyrighted works without permission in things like commentary and research. Knowing who owns copyrighted material and getting permission is important to avoid legal issues when using others' works.
ACRL 2011
The document discusses the threats that digital rights management (DRM) poses to readers' rights with ebooks. It argues that DRM restricts consumers' control over their devices and purchases, threatens fair use and privacy, and limits sharing and libraries' ability to provide access. The document proposes a Readers' Bill of Rights for Digital Books that guarantees the ability to retain, archive, transfer and print purchased ebooks using open formats on various hardware. It encourages actions like choosing DRM-free options and informing publishers that DRM is opposed.

26 Smirks: eReading and Libraries
Tom Peters gave a talk about the impact of eReading on libraries and opportunities for libraries. He discussed the HarperCollins policy change that limits ebooks to 26 circulations and options for responding to publishers. Peters outlined the growing portable eReading market with devices like Kindles and iPads and content from Amazon, Apple, Google and OverDrive. He argued that libraries should focus on enhancing the eReading experience for patrons rather than competing with devices, and proposed actions like improving eBook collections, streamlining access, and developing a library eReader bill of rights.
Ebooks indest
The document discusses e-books in libraries and some of the key issues and challenges they present. It defines what an e-book is, traces the development of e-books from 1971 onward, and outlines issues like the limited availability of scholarly titles, delays in releasing academic e-books, licensing models that emphasize leasing over ownership, implications of leased access including loss of access, legal restrictions on uses like interlibrary lending, and the need for standardization of license terms.
eReaders for the Classroom: Are They Right for You?
This document discusses eReaders for classroom use. It provides a history of eReaders beginning in 1971 with Project Gutenberg and covers various eReader devices that have emerged over the years like Kindle. Common issues with eBooks like digital rights management and pricing are addressed. Student responses to eReaders are also presented, finding that many prefer print but would use eBooks if necessary. Both limitations and possibilities of eReaders in education are considered.

Understanding E-books: A Guide to Current Challenges and Future Possibilities...
This document provides an overview of the history and evolution of ebooks. It outlines several major milestones in ebooks such as the development of ebook reading devices from 1999-2012. It also discusses types of ebooks, key players and sources of ebooks, different business models, and issues in the ebook landscape. Major topics covered include the growth of ebooks in libraries and how demand-driven acquisition models have changed over time.
Libraries and the Digital Now
The premise of this presentation is quite simple. Cory Doctorow (2012) stated in his talk entitled ‘An elegy for a book’ that, “The library of tomorrow should be better than the library of today”. When framed in the context of the Internet, the current Information Age, and the foreseen Internet of Things this becomes an obvious statement that many would assume to be true. However, upon closer examination of the issues surrounding libraries, Doctorow’s statement is quite complex, especially with regards to libraries making the transition to including eBooks as an ever expanding portion of their book collections under the current legal structures of extended copyright and Digital Right Management software and systems. In order to comprehend the root causes of the why Doctorow would need to make such an apparent statement about future libraries, the presentation will introduce the concepts of the traditional commons (Hardin, 1968), current anticommons (Heller, 1998), and how extended copyright has reduced the number of print books and eBooks available (Heald, 2008 & 2014, Smith, Telang & Zhang, 2012). Less available content is cause for concern for English educators as learning management systems are becoming common place which in turn need to be content rich and perhaps compete on a more global scale for students. One solution of a mashup of open domain content will be proposed. Specifically, a real world example of providing lexically analyzed eBooks and audio books for teachers of English in Lesser Developed (LD) countries by using books in the public domain will be presented.
Week 1 Lecture
This document provides an overview of ebooks and e-readers. It discusses the definition of ebooks, their history and major milestones. Some key points covered include:
- Ebooks first emerged in the early 1990s as digital versions of print books that could be read on computers. Major companies like Amazon and Barnes & Noble entered the market in the late 1990s and 2000s.
- Important milestones included the launch of early e-readers in the 1999-2012 period as well as the growth of digital publishing in the late 1990s and 2000s.
- Ebooks offer various advantages like portability, storage, accessibility and lower production costs compared to print. However, challenges include a lack of

eReading talk SJSU 2012 01
Tom Peters gave a talk on the future of reading and ebooks. He discussed how ebooks, eReaders, and mobile devices are revolutionizing reading. This revolution presents both opportunities and risks for libraries. Peters outlined many changes happening in publishing, bookselling, and how readers find and consume content. He argued that libraries must experiment with new services and devices to support digital reading, work to protect library lending models, and align with readers and authors in this changing environment.
e-‐readers/Social Media/Security
The document discusses e-readers, social media, and security. It begins with introductions and questions about experience with e-readers, whether libraries lend them, and allow social media access. Statistics are presented on e-book borrowing from libraries and ownership of e-readers and tablets. The document then provides a brief history of e-books, including Michael Hart creating the first e-book in 1971 and the founding of Project Gutenberg. It discusses the early adoption of e-books by libraries and when downloadable fiction became available. Advantages and challenges of e-books are discussed, along with resources for free e-books like Project Gutenberg. Social media tools like Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn are also listed.
Digital Rights Issues for Libraries
The document summarizes a presentation by Lila Bailey, a digital copyright lawyer, about digital rights issues for libraries. It covers three main parts: [1] digital copyright issues such as exceptions under fair use and first sale doctrines; [2] patron privacy issues involving library records and third party vendors; and [3] contracts and licensing issues when dealing with digital content from vendors. The presentation provides an overview of relevant copyright laws and best practices for libraries to consider regarding digital content and patron privacy.
UCD eBooks day
The document summarizes key points from a workshop on eBooks held at UCD Library. It discusses developments in eBooks, findings from eBook research projects like SuperBook and the JISC National eBooks Observatory, and survey results about student and faculty use and perceptions of eBooks. Key themes included the impact of eBooks on libraries, varying use by subject and age, and how reading behaviors are changing in the digital environment.
Banger ebooks presentation
This document discusses the challenges libraries face in providing ebooks to patrons. It notes that ebooks could threaten libraries' role but that much depends on the approach taken. It outlines some of the limitations of ebooks compared to physical books. It also discusses the fight libraries have in acquiring ebooks due to licensing negotiations with publishers and vendors, as well as challenges in getting ebooks into the hands of patrons due to technical support needs. The document suggests some ways libraries can proceed, such as creating their own content, investing in technology, advocating for ownership and integration in negotiations, and prioritizing user instruction.
Sr briefing paper_anderson
- The use of general print book collections in research libraries is declining rapidly as the scholarly publishing model shifts to digital. It no longer makes sense for libraries to focus on acquiring commodity books that are widely available through commercial markets.
- Instead, libraries should shift their focus to special collections - acquiring, digitizing, and making discoverable rare and unique materials that would otherwise be inaccessible. This includes primary sources, manuscripts, artifacts, etc. that have cultural and historical value beyond just their content.
- By acquiring, digitizing, and providing open access to special collection materials, libraries can ensure the preservation of and access to important cultural heritage while carving out a distinct and essential role in the digital age.
Copy right act and librarianship
E-publications raise copyright issues for libraries providing digital services. While libraries aim to serve users, authors and publishers focus on profiting from works. There is currently no digital library law to regulate e-services and protect libraries from potential copyright offenses. A new law is needed to allow libraries to fully utilize ICT and provide e-content to users, while still respecting copyright. Libraries must balance serving users through e-resources with avoiding illegal reproduction or distribution of copyrighted works.
What if the future (of libraries)
Discussion of possible ebook lending scenarios for public libraries and the importance of network scale platforms to support ebook services.
Surf’s Up! Plunging Headfirst into the Briny Waters of eReaders and eBooks
This document summarizes the history and current state of ebooks and ereaders. It discusses how ebooks emerged in the 1970s with Project Gutenberg and the first dedicated ereaders in 1998. By 2009, Kindle ebook sales surpassed physical books on Amazon. The document also reviews common hardware, file formats, purchasing issues, and teen responses to ebooks. It notes that while ebooks increase access, screens can discourage contemplation compared to print and content selection varies between devices.
Patron driven acquisition
This document discusses patron-driven acquisition (PDA) of ebooks. It explains that PDA allows libraries to expand collections based on patron demand rather than librarian selection. Libraries set parameters for PDA, such as price limits. Users discover ebooks that the library has not yet purchased. If a book meets the preset usage thresholds, such as a certain number of chapter views, the library purchases it. PDA has benefits like guaranteed usage of purchased titles and an automated acquisitions process. However, some argue PDA shifts too much control over collections from librarians to users.
Ebook Update
E-books have gone from a niche service to a high demand format in an incredibly short time. And their pace of growth is likely to increase. Furthermore, new examples of digital reading material are appearing every day as are new devices and software to read them on. But is e-publishing a growing trend or a passing fad? Regardless and more importantly, how do we help our readers use the e-reading devices they have now and help them to choose what they should get next?
In this Florida Library Webinar:
- Explore the alphabet soup of acronyms.
- Highlight a variety of e-readers and tablets currently on the market.
- Showcase some innovative digital publishers and library vendors.
- Cover the pros and cons of Digital Rights Management (DRM).
- Try to predict where the e-publishing industry will go.

Library in a Nutshell
This document provides an overview of resources available at the Brooklyn College Library presented by Librarian Professor Alycia Sellie. It highlights five floors of study spaces, viewing rooms, computer labs, archives and special collections. Students have access to all CUNY library collections and can request books from other libraries using their Brooklyn College ID card. The library website provides access to the catalog, databases and subject guides for finding books, articles and resources. Students can use interlibrary loan to borrow items not available at CUNY libraries. Workshops are offered each semester and research help is available at the reference desk, by chat and from subject librarians.

CUNY IT Conference: Hacking Copyright
The document discusses "hacking copyright" by using free culture licenses to allow wider use of scholarly works without requiring permission. It explains that standard copyright restricts works for the author's entire life plus 70 years, whereas free licenses like Creative Commons allow others to copy, share, remix and reuse works without individual permission as long as they follow the license terms. While still using copyright, free licenses grant additional rights to users and promote a free culture over a permission culture. The document compares different free licenses and clarifies that free licensing is not the same as open access, though they have similar goals of making works more accessible and reusable.

This document discusses zines, self-publishing, blogs, and their relevance for librarians. It notes that zines can cover a wide variety of topics and are created out of a desire to fill voids in mainstream media. It also mentions several zines created by librarians about zines and libraries. Finally, it discusses blogs as another format for librarians to freely publish and self-publish online, and provides a link to slides from the related talk.
Metro Panel: Community
This document discusses ways for librarians to foster community through networking with library groups and organizations, even those off the mainstream radar. It suggests getting to know and working within a community you identify with, and creating one if none exists that fits. Specific groups mentioned include a Hunger, Homelessness & Poverty Task Force and finding mentors to learn from their work and publishing.

- Alycia The Library Bill of Rights, adopted by the ALA in 1948, clearly states that “librarians and governing bodies should maintain that parents — and only parents — have the right and the responsibility to restrict the access of their children — and only their children — to library resources.” As a general library policy concerning patrons’ right to the written word, the Library Bill of Rights emphasizes the power of information in a free society. Article 3 reads, “Libraries should challenge censorship in the fulfillment of their responsibility to provide information and enlightenment.” As the ALA’s Web site states, “Censorship by librarians of constitutionally protected speech, whether for protection or for any other reason, violates the First Amendment.”
