Often these collections are of mixed or unknown copyright status. During this webinar, participants will learn how the basics of U.S. copyright law and fair use apply to these digitization projects as well as discover best practices to be employed when engaging in digitization of library and archive collections. Permissions and post-digitization licensing and reuse policies will also be covered.
