in Room 401
or: Teachers: Beg, Borrow, and... Steal?
What is Copyright?The owner’s legal right to reproduce, display, transmit, perform and modify work they have created.
A work is automatically copyrighted at the moment of creation as long as it is in a fixed tangible form.
Copyright reflects the interests of the creators of a work, the publishers, and the users.
Copyright’s Purpose
To promote the spread of knowledge and innovation.
-U.S. Constitution
The Founding Fathers believed that encouraging the development of new ideas and information serves society as a whole.
Fair Use
Section 107: The fair use Doctrine of the copyright law of 1976
Fair use gives people the right to use copyrighted material when the cost to the copyright holder is less than the social benefit of the use of the copyrighted work.
- Peter Jaszi
Four Factors
Purpose of Use
Nature of the Work
Amount of the Portion Used
The economic impact on the market value of the copyrighted work
