Photographs in Library Collections

Libraries are making innovative use of their local treasures. The Library of
Congress is sharing a sampling of its rich collection on Flickr
<http://www.flickr.com/photos/Library_of_Congress/> , as well continuing to
make its own American Memory <http://memory.loc.gov/ammem/index.html>  site
a must visit. If your library has been digitizing some of its treasures to
put online, stop into this webcast for a concrete, understandable approach
to understanding the copyright issues critical to your project. 

Spend an hour of prevention watching this webcast, and minimize the chances
of lengthy legal battles in the future. This webcast is recommended for all
libraries participating in the Local History Digital Resources Program
(LHDRP). 

Speaker:  Mary Minow.  Mary Minow is an attorney, consultant, and a former
librarian and library trustee. She has taught library law at the San Jose
State School of Library Science. She was President on the board of CALTAC in
2002, the California Association of Library Trustees and Commissioners, and

California Library Association's Zoia Horn Intellectual Freedom Award, given
in 2004.
