Copyright offices and their staff and those either assigned to respond to copyright questions or who have that role by default are generally library based. The responsibilities, credentials, reporting structure, staffing, and financial resources are as varied as the libraries and universities themselves. There are some commonalities but also many distinct differences. This chapter provides three examples of how copyright responsibilities and services are organized and operated at small, mid-size, and large universities as well as public and private ones. http://hdl.handle.net/2374.MIA/6985 http://hdl.handle.net/2374.MIA/6984 You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means...Copyright myths, misnomers, and misconceptions Myers, Carla S. Copyright law permeates almost every aspect of librarianship and does much to help academic libraries offer a wide variety of services and resources to patrons. Unfortunately, there are many myths and misconceptions about the law that can have a chilling effect on users, arbitrarily limiting the ways academic libraries and the scholars they serve may engage with protected resources. This paper will introduce readers to the basics of U.S. copyright law that all library employees should be familiar with, providing a foundation of knowledge they can then use to identify myths and misconceptions about the law. http://hdl.handle.net/2374.MIA/6984 http://hdl.handle.net/2374.MIA/6983 Failure is an option! What we can learn from unsuccessful scholarly communications initiatives. Myers, Carla S. . Scholarly Communication Librarianship and Open Knowledge (ACRL, 2023) was conceived as an open textbook of scholarly communication librarianship, which we hope may be a vehicle to increase instruction on SC topics in LIS programs, as well as serve as a resource for continuing education. http://hdl.handle.net/2374.MIA/6983
