Whenever you create new artwork or scholarship, or use the work of others, copyright law touches you. If you would like to learn about the intersections of copyright law and creative practice, please consider enrolling in Basic Copyright Principles.
This noncredit course is designed especially for faculty, and will meet February 2 through 4, 2011. It is online in Moodle, so you can work at your own pace, in your own space. Copyright Basics includes brief readings and activities intended to introduce you to copyright law and related resources.
Topics include:
• What copyright protects
• Who owns copyright
• The duration of copyright protection
• The rights included in copyright
• Exceptions to copyright, with a focus on fair use
• How to seek permission to use a work protected by copyright

• Services provided by the Columbia College Library that help you to comply with copyright law
If you have questions or wish to enroll, please contact Maryam Fakouri at mfakouri@colum.edu. Enrollment is limited to 15 participants. We look forward to hearing from you!
