I think the Exceptions for Instructors eTool that I created with the help/support of the Copyright Subcommittee of ALA's Office for Information Technology Policy is a good place to start.
http://librarycopyright.net/etool/ I'd love to hear what you think of it and if you end up using it at your institution. We make it available through a creative commons license, so you can put it on your own institution's servers and add your own contact information ,etc. if you like. mb Michael Brewer Team Leader for Instructional Services University of Arizona Libraries brew...@u.library.arizona.edu<mailto:brew...@u.library.arizona.edu> From: videolib-boun...@lists.berkeley.edu [mailto:videolib-boun...@lists.berkeley.edu] On Behalf Of CROWLEY, CHRISTINE Sent: Monday, July 26, 2010 10:18 AM To: videolib@lists.berkeley.edu Subject: [Videolib] FAQ on DMCA Okay, pardon me if I missed this issue being dealt with earlier this summer. I have been out of town a lot and have not followed up on some threads. I am looking for an FAQ for the DMCA and TEACH act for higher ed faculty. You know, where they think they can grab a DVD off the shelf and have it broadcast over Mediasite or some such service for distance ed students. Or that they can stream it completely in Blackboard. Is anyone aware of such? Please supply URL and I will send them and you my eternal gratitude! Christine Crowley Dean of Learning Resources Northwest Vista College 3535 N.

It allows you circumvent the DMCA in order to use a small portion of a work for a class etc. I especially appreciate that it really spells out this is a small portion and for a "transformative" purpose.
