This week the Federal Register announced hearing on revisions to Section 108.
These hearings are by appointment and are closed. So there will not be an opportunity for participants to hear what others are saying. Requests to be heard must be received by 11:5p p.m. Eastern on July 17, 2016 Full details including links to the specific revisions/questions can be found here: https://www.federalregister.gov/articles/2016/06/07/2016-13426/section-108-draft-revision-of-the-library-and-archives-exceptions-in-us-copyright-law There was much discussion of these hearings at the Kraemer Copyright Symposium. It is believed that a key focus of the revisions will address mass digitization. deg farrelly Media Librarian Arizona State University deg.farre...@asu.edu<mailto:deg.farre...@asu.edu> 602.332.3103
VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
