Copyright and Digital Content
This document provides an overview of a workshop on copyright and digital content. It discusses several key topics: 1. It defines copyright, fair use, public domain, and Creative Commons licenses. 2. It identifies the rights afforded to copyright holders under copyright law, including the right to copy, distribute and adapt works. 3. It explains the concept of "fair use" and open educational resources (OERs) which are educational materials shared freely under an open license. 4. It provides a framework for analyzing any copyright problem by considering whether a work is protected, if exceptions or licenses apply, whether it qualifies as fair use, and if permission is needed.
