Prepare your library for the changing role of course reserve
collections Reserves, Electronic Reserves, and Copyright: The Past
and the Future provides you with a comprehensive understanding of
how the traditional role of reserve collections in education has
evolved to reflect changes in technologies, copyright laws, and
perhaps more important, perceptions of copyright laws. This unique
book demonstrates how librarians have allowed their copyright
policies and practices to be shaped by rhetoric from publishers and
their own misinterpretations of copyright law instead of the actual
legal aspects that apply to course reserves. Author Brice Austin,
Head of Circulation and Interlibrary Loan Services at the
University of Colorado, presents practical strategies for adapting
your reserves to the changing world of higher education, focusing
on new teaching methods and electronic resources. In addition to
providing a historical overview of reserves and copyrights,
Reserves, Electronic Reserves, and Copyright: The Past and the
Future offers practical methods for getting the copyright
flexibility you need from your course reserves by emphasizing
economic instead of legal arguments. You'll find strategies for
protecting yourself against a decline in the significance of course
reserves as libraries and publishers move from print-based to
electronic formats. The book encourages you to take a proactive
stance on the future of your reserves operation by: 1) exploiting
your position as publishers' customers to your advantage, 2) making
full use of Fair Use, and 3) forging partnerships with other campus
entities in order to offer expanded, multifaceted reserves
services. Reserves, Electronic Reserves, and Copyright: The Past
and the Future examines: the origins of the practice of setting
materials aside from the main library collection the introduction
of a new method of photographythe copy machine the 1976 copyright
law revisions, including fair use, reproductions by libraries, and
classroom guidelines lawsuits against New York University and
Kinko's Graphics Corporation the history of electronic reserves and
much more! Reserves, Electronic Reserves, and Copyright: The Past
and the Future also contains several appendices, including Section
108 of the United States Copyright Law and Applying Fair Use in the
Development of Electronic Reserves Systems from the Association of
Research Libraries (ARL). The book is an invaluable professional
resource for librarians at academic institutions, especially those
charged with administering electronic reserves.
