ACUP A Midwest Success

To keep them informed, and spare the university a legal battle, Rosemary Chase, copyright officer at George Mason University, suggested that managers hold copyright workshops.

Some of the key points to stress to faculty, she said in her ACUP session, are:

• Presume everything is owned by someone.

• The "Fair Use" statute of the 1976 Copyright Act lets you use copyrighted works in small amounts and for short periods of time.
