IMPLEMENTING THE T.E.A.C.H. Act
October 22 - November 5, 2003
Moderated by Kenneth Crews
Virtual Intellectual Property Scholar, CIP-UMUC, Associate Dean &
Director, Copyright Management Center, Indiana University-Purdue
University Indianapolis (IUPUI)
The Copyright Act of 1976 was recently amended to accommodate digital
educational transmissions. The new amendment, Technology, Education and
Copyright Harmonization Act of 2002 (TEACH Act), was signed into law in
November, 2002 and educational institutions are grappling with whether
and how to take advantage of this new law.

BALANCING ACTS: Fair Use and Digital Content
November 10 - November 21, 2003
Moderated by Georgia Harper
Manager, Intellectual Property Section of The University of Texas System
Office of General Counsel
This workshop will introduce you to the counterpart of copyright: the
lawful right to use copyright protected works owned by others without
their permission. The confusion faced when determining the parameters of
U.S. Copyright Act fair use provisions is often compounded when facing
digital content. Where does the TEACH act end and fair use begin? Or
should it be stated in reverse? Gain an in-depth understanding of the
fair use issues facing higher education today and learn how to address
them in the company of an expert.
