1. Copyright 101: An Introduction to Copyright
PART 1: COPYRIGHT - AN INTRODUCTION
"Highly Recommended. This program gives a general overview of copyright law as it applies in various settings such as education, libraries, and to the general public. The host and attorney are very well spoken, and they seem to take care to avoid an excess of 'legalese.' They provide a very thorough explanation of copyright law, understandable to the layperson. This program does a great job of giving a clear overview of a complex topic; it would be great video for training/continuing education for teachers or librarians, for class discussion in law schools, or for anyone who needs a broad overview of copyright law."
