Can't make it to Rochester this year? Travel budget cut, schedule
conflicts? Would you still like to be able to attend the great copyright
workshop that we've put together?
For the first time, ARSC is offering its pre-conference workshop in a live
streaming online version for those who are unable to attend the conference
in person in Rochester, NY. An archived version will also be made available
to all registrants for a limited time.
This day-long workshop is for anyone who deals with sound recordings
archivists, librarians, private collectors, students, recording engineers,
administrators, musicians and therefore navigates the challenges of
copyright. Peter Hirtle, Intellectual Property Officer for Cornell
University Library, will lead the morning session with an in-depth look at
look at copyright and related issues including intellectual and performance
rights, post-1972 US sound recordings, post-1923 foreign sound recordings,
determining current copyright status of recordings and alternatives to the
traditional copyright framework. The afternoon session will include a
roundtable discussion of issues with Brandon Butler of the Association of
Research Libraries, David Hansen of the UC Berkeley Library Digital Library
Copyright Project, David Levine of Stanfordıs Center for Internet and
Society, and Ramon Ricker of Eastman School of Music.
Each participant is encouraged to acquire a copy of Copyright and Cultural
Institutions: Guidelines for Digitization for U.S. Libraries, Archives, and
