     2:00 - 4:00 p.m.
     Library of Congress - Jefferson Bldg, Rm LJ113
     
     Topic: Copyright and Fair use: Implications for Cooperative Programs.
     
     In light of recent court decisions, educational programs increasingly 
     find themselves in the gray area of copyright and fair use.  
     Discussion will focus on identifying the role of copyright and fair 
     use and the impact it has on our current services, workshops, and 
     publications.  Does your institution have a copyright policy? What 
     should be addressed in a copyright policy?  Potential pitfalls and 
     solutions will be identified and questions compiled for future 
     research and discussion. In addition, George Farr will give a brief 
     summary of NEH activities related to cooperative programs and will be 
     available for further discussion.
