COPYRIGHT LITERACY & EDUCATION
RACHEL MILES
COPYRIGHT LITERACY EDUCATION
How did I approach copyright?
 “Can I use this?” Questions from faculty, students, staff
 Copyright consultation requests & copyright questions
 Lots of investigative work
 Follow the Framework for Analyzing any U.S. Copyright Problem!
 But, without a thorough understanding of:
 Public performance rights
 Performance Rights Organizations (PROs)
 Music Blanket License Agreements
 Electronic Resource Licensing
 Copyright Exemptions
 …I was sometimes researching my answers for hours!
Step 1: Awareness of my Lack of Copyright
Knowledge
Image derivative of “Yellow Brick
Road” by Don, CC BY-NC-SA
FRAMEWORK FOR ANALYZING ANY U.S. COPYRIGHT PROBLEM
1. Does it have copyright protection?
2. Does it have an existing license?
3. Is there a specific exemption that covers my use?
4. Is my use covered by fair use?
5. Do I need permission from the copyright holder for my
use?
COPYRIGHT LITERACY EDUCATION
Copyright: A Self-Education Journey
 Completed MOOCs
 Copyright for Librarians and Educators
 Copyright for Multimedia
 CopyrightX at Harvard Law School
 Read Books
 Read articles & blogs
 Thoroughly researched consultation questions
 Consulted ERL, Christina Geuther
 Improved copyright website
Step 2: My Research & Education
CC0
COPYRIGHT LITERACY EDUCATION
 Emails exchanged about
consultations, scenarios on
campus
 Realization of our areas’
overlap
 Decided to create a
LibGuide
 Meanwhile, other resources
created
 Some resources created as
a result of creating
LibGuide
 Learned from each other
Step 3: Collaboration & Resource Creation
CC0
COPYRIGHT LITERACY EDUCATION
 “I have heard conflicting things about film presentation here. At my last university, the stance was that if
the target audience was the university community and it was a free event, then it was fine to show any
films. Here at KSU, I've heard that, as well as that you can only show public domain films, can show
anything the library has in its collection (including Kanopy), and / or can only show movies that it pays
distributors for? What is the stance of the university, please?
Regarding the event, the students were going to show 3 films over two days in (they hoped) the union or
a classroom. The films were going to be free and open to the public, with some off campus advertising.”
Step 4: Outreach & Education to Campus
Copyright Questions
FOLLOWING THE FRAMEWORK FOR FILM SHOWINGS
Film Showings & Festivals LibGuide page
1. Can you show a film that is in the public domain?
2. A film with a Creative Commons License?
3. Is there a film available through the library streaming resources?
4. Can you purchase the Public Performance Rights (i.e.,
permissions)?
COPYRIGHT LITERACY EDUCATION Step 4: Outreach & Education to Campus
Copyright Questions
 “I attended your fair use workshop but still have questions. I am putting two history of
architecture/interior design classes online. As you can imagine, every slide of every lecture contains an
image. Only some of them are available in Creative Commons or through ARTstor. Here's my main question:
When you quote text from a journal article or book, you put quotations around it and cite it. What about
images from journal articles and books? Does it work the same way? Or do I have to do a fair use evaluation
for every single image? That would be a nightmare. (maybe 50-100 images per lecture!) I need to be able to
scan some floor plans, drawings and photos from books and journal articles. Looking forward to your
response!”
FOLLOWING THE FRAMEWORK FOR EDUCATION
Closed Online Classrooms
1. Link it out!
2. Public domain content
3. Creative Commons Licensed content
4. Library-licensed materials & streamed resources
5. TEACH Act (specific exemption)
6. Fair use
7. Permissions
COPYRIGHT LITERACY EDUCATION Step 4: Outreach & Education to Campus
Copyright Questions
 “I am trying to write my master's report and I plan to use charts from the attached document. I know
that information available in the public domain can be used without requesting permission, however, I
am confused if the attached document would be considered "public domain". It was available on the
Department of Energy website, but is technically prepared by a company called Navigant. Would I need
to request permission from Navigant to use their charts?”
FOLLOWING THE FRAMEWORK FOR ACADEMIC WORK & ETDRS
Academic Work
1. Does it have copyright protection (i.e., is it copyrightable)?
2. Is it in the public domain (i.e., it had copyright protection & the
term expired)?
3. Does it have an existing license (e.g., a library license)?
4. Can you rely on fair use?
5. Do you need to seek permission for your use?
COPYRIGHT LITERACY EDUCATION Step 4: Outreach & Education to Campus
Copyright Questions
 “I am performing at a regional competition next week and I am using a song published by
the Tams-Witmark Music Library. Their website says that I can perform it for free if my school
has an ASCAP license. I know that K-State does have an ASCAP but I am requesting permission
from the General Counsel to perform this song for this purpose. I am in need of written
validation to show my adjudicators at the Kennedy Center American Collegiate Theatre Festival
next week.”
FOLLOWING THE FRAMEWORK FOR PUBLIC PERFORMANCES
Musical and Theatrical Performances
1. Performing works in the public domain (no brainer!)
2. University blanket music license agreements (negotiated by
General Counsel)
3. Other music license agreements & exemptions
4. Separate musical agreements for songs not in licensed repertories
5. Separate individual agreements for theatrical or dramatic works
COPYRIGHT LITERACY EDUCATION Step 4: Outreach & Education to Campus
Copyright Questions
 “A video of the Department of Apparel, Textiles and Interior Design's Showcase of Excellence runway
show will be made and it will include music that falls under K-State's licensing from ASCAP or BMI. My
question is: What do we need to do to retain the music and other audio when the video is made available
on the department website following the event? Most likely it will play via YouTube.”
COPYRIGHT FRAMEWORK AND RECORDING PERFORMANCES
Recording K-State Performances
 Specific to K-State
 Based on blanket music license agreements
 Only permitted on K-State hosted websites
 Cannot be uploaded to YouTube
FOLLOWING THE FRAMEWORK FOR ADDING MUSIC IN VIDEO
Music in Video
1. Recording music in the public domain
2. Creative Commons Licensed Music
3. Royalty-free Music
4. YouTube – Music Policies
5. Fair Use
6. Synchronization (Sync) Licensing (i.e., permission)

COPYRIGHT LITERACY EDUCATION
CC0
PRESENT VENDOR LICENSE TERMS AND
BEST PRACTICES FOR THE
EVERYDAY USER’S UNDERSTANDING
AND SEARCH PROCESS
HOW ARE LICENSE TERMS DIFFERENT?
 Terms restrict how US Copyright, Fair Use, Fair Dealing,
etc., can be applied
 Interpretations can be negotiated
 Licenses in a library can be assumed to "override" many
provisions of Copyright
 Restrictions may affect:
 How a resource is shared through ILL
 Systematic downloading or mining
 Citing the resource
 Concurrent usage
 Other situations
CC0
WHAT CAN BE GENERALIZED ABOUT AGREEMENTS?
 Licensee responsible use
 Commonly prohibited activity can trigger a
breach of contract
 Language legalistic and requires interpretation
by the institutional representative such as a
licensing librarian
Breach of Agreement by Nick Youngson CC BY-SA 3.0
Alpha Stock Images
PRESENTING THE INFORMATION IN THE SEARCH PROCESS
 Problem:
 Spike in suspicious activity at K-State
 Solution:
 Presenting license information in the search process
 Alma has licensing record module: shows its fields in the discovery layer
Primo
 Now ILL and use restrictions appear as a viewing option
 Outcome
 Decreased referrals to the licensing librarian by patrons and staff alike
PRESENTING THE INFORMATION ON RESEARCH GUIDES
 More areas of inquiry needed to be clarified
 Instructions for viewing the terms in the discovery layer and
interpretations for common university scenarios included in new
LibGuide
 Allowed behind-the-scenes in technical services to be at the frontlines of
research
 Most difficult part of process:
 Generalizing terms and interpretations
 Additional guide named every resource explicitly compliant with
text and data mining
OUTCOMES
 Licensing explanations meant for the patrons
and faculty and library staff
 Empowered and encouraged positive behaviors
across the user population
 Research guides provided:
 License information as to why and how users can
best use library resources
 What ERL needed of the user to negotiate to be
more relevant to the user and a more service-
oriented perspective

    COPYRIGHT LITERACY EDUCATIONStep 4: Outreach & Education to Campus Copyright Questions  “I am performing at a regional competition next week and I am using a song published by the Tams-Witmark Music Library. Their website says that I can perform it for free if my school has an ASCAP license. I know that K-State does have an ASCAP but I am requesting permission from the General Counsel to perform this song for this purpose. I am in need of written validation to show my adjudicators at the Kennedy Center American Collegiate Theatre Festival next week.”

    COPYRIGHT LITERACY EDUCATIONStep 4: Outreach & Education to Campus Copyright Questions  “A video of the Department of Apparel, Textiles and Interior Design's Showcase of Excellence runway show will be made and it will include music that falls under K-State's licensing from ASCAP or BMI. My question is: What do we need to do to retain the music and other audio when the video is made available on the department website following the event? Most likely it will play via YouTube.”

    PRESENT VENDOR LICENSETERMS AND BEST PRACTICES FOR THE EVERYDAY USER’S UNDERSTANDING AND SEARCH PROCESS
  • 55.
    HOW ARE LICENSETERMS DIFFERENT?  Terms restrict how US Copyright, Fair Use, Fair Dealing, etc., can be applied  Interpretations can be negotiated  Licenses in a library can be assumed to "override" many provisions of Copyright  Restrictions may affect:  How a resource is shared through ILL  Systematic downloading or mining  Citing the resource  Concurrent usage  Other situations CC0
  • 56.
    WHAT CAN BEGENERALIZED ABOUT AGREEMENTS?  Licensee responsible use  Commonly prohibited activity can trigger a breach of contract  Language legalistic and requires interpretation by the institutional representative such as a licensing librarian Breach of Agreement by Nick Youngson CC BY-SA 3.0 Alpha Stock Images

  • #56 License terms restrict how US Copyright, Fair Use, Fair Dealing, etc., can be applied to a library's environment These interpretations can be negotiated between the licensor (vendor) and licensee (library) to explicitly name an activity or fall "silent" on an issue (omit a topic altogether) Licenses in a library can be assumed to "override" many provisions of Copyright Restrictions may be how a resource is shared through interlibrary loan or otherwise in an online environment, systematic downloading or mining, citing the resource, concurrent usage, and other situations that affect users directly
  • #57 License agreements have obligations for the licensee to be aware of how to responsibly use a resource within the provisions of the terms of use of a license Agreements are uniquely organized and written, but have commonly prohibited activity that may trigger a breach of contract between the licensor and licensee The language is legalistic and not always in laymen's terms, so it requires interpretation by the institutional representative such as a licensing librarian
  • #58 K-State experienced a jump in suspicious activity by authenticated and non-authenticated users, so one of the first moves to avoid this in the future was to present the information in the search process Ex Libris unified resource management system Alma has a licensing record module that is able to be configured to show its fields in the discovery layer Primo Now interlibrary loan and use restrictions appear as a viewing option with the database or platform search results This has decreased referrals to the licensing librarian by patrons and staff alike
  • #59 More areas of inquiry needed to be clarified and presented for researchers using library resources, so instructions for viewing the terms in the discovery layer and interpretations for common university scenarios were combined with a guide for other questions of U.S. Copyright This allowed what information was usually kept behind the scenes in technical services to be at the frontlines of research The most difficult part of the process was generalizing terms and interpretation when licenses can be written so uniquely and the resources applied for different purposes Aside from the guide the scholarly communications librarian collaborated on with the licensing librarian, K-State also put forward a resource naming every resource explicitly naming compliance with text and data mining
  • #60 The licensing explanations were meant just as much for the patrons as faculty and library staff  By treating the community equally in knowledge sharing, we empowered and encouraged positive behaviors across the user population Users want to understand why and how they can best use the library resources, and the research guides' license information provided that opportunity to them They also explained what the electronic resources librarian needed of the user or their project to negotiate for rights not addressed in the guides or current terms of use, to be more relevant to the user and a more service-oriented perspective
