Copyright and Digitization

From American Libraries Direct

Copyright and digitization

Cornell University Library has published Copyright and Cultural Institutions: Guidelines for Digitization for U.S. Libraries, Archives, and Museums to help cultural institutions legally use the internet to improve public access to the rich collections they hold. Based on a well-received Australian manual, the book was developed by Cornell’s senior policy advisor Peter B. Hirtle. As an experiment in open-access publishing, the library has made the work available in both print and free download formats....Cornell University Library, Oct. 29
