PRESENTATIONS: Copyright Issues Facing the College Community Alice Lubrecht Ms. Lubrecht, Dean of Library and Information Resources, discussed the complex issues faculty members face in working with copyrighted material in class. Under the concept of "fair use," material protected by copyright may be used for education and research without violating the

2 copyright. However, electronic publishing of text and video, as well changes in copyright law, have complicated the issues. Electronic publishing has made it easier for students to practice plagiarism and more difficult for faculty to recognize it and identify the original sources. Students have erroneously come to believe that any text available electronically is in the public domain. To combat plagiarism and the rise of on-line businesses that sell papers to students, on-line services like Turnitin.com provide educators with a tool that analyzes student writing for plagiarized material. Students can also use Turnitin's software to determine whether their papers would pass scrutiny for original work and proper citation of sources. The following questions are useful in determining whether an intended use of copyrighted material is considered "fair use": Is the intended use educational or commercial? Is the material a work of fact or fiction, or a mixture of both? How much material is to be used? What is the potential market impact of the intended use? The College has attempted to address such issues with Administrative Procedure 753, which governs library reserve materials and specifies that the library should own one copy of any work that will be reserved more than once. Otherwise, use is limited to five years. For all other materials, faculty members must write for permission. This practice pertains even to out-ofprint publications, since requests can indicate to publishers that continuing interest in a work may justify its reissuance. The College is using the same guidelines for digitized videos. V. OLD BUSINESS VI.
