posted on 2017-11-09, 14:57 authored by Elizabeth Joan KellyElizabeth Joan KellyAs librarians are increasingly identified as
rights experts on campus, it is essential that they understand rights issues
and how best to communicate them to a multitude of users. While scholarly
literature contains many examples of librarians working with faculty on
copyright issues regarding course materials, reserves, eReserves, and
intellectual property, there is far less documentation of the need for
students, especially undergraduates, to understand their rights as creators and
consumers of information. This article reviews relevant literature on librarian
copyright skills, the need for copyright instruction, and current case studies
and examples of copyright instruction for undergraduates.
