<b>Thursday, April 30, 2015</b> at the <b>Cranbrook Art Museum</b> for a discussion on copyright and fair use of images, texts, and other materials in creative and scholarly work.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">At its February 2015 conference, the College Art Association released its new
<i>Code of Best Practices in Fair Use for the Visual Arts</i> (<a href="http://www.collegeart.org/fair-use/">http://www.collegeart.org/fair-use/</a>). The
<i>Code </i>provides visual arts professionals with a set of principles addressing best practices in the fair use of copyrighted materials. It describes how fair use can be invoked and implemented when using copyrighted materials in scholarship, teaching, museums,
archives/libraries, and in the creation of art.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""><br>
The <em><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Code</span></em> addresses the following five questions:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Analytic Writing:</span></strong> When may scholars and other writers about art invoke fair use to quote, excerpt, or reproduce copyrighted works?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Teaching about Art:</span></strong> When may teachers invoke fair use in using copyrighted works to support formal instruction in a range of settings, including online and distance
teaching?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Making Art:</span></strong> Under what circumstances may artists invoke fair use to incorporate copyrighted material into new artworks in any medium?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Museum Uses:</span></strong> When may museums and their staffs invoke fair use in using copyrighted works—including images and text as well as time-based and born-digital material—when
organizing exhibitions, developing educational materials (within the museum and online), publishing catalogs, and other related activities?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Online Access to Archival and Special Collections:</span></strong> When may archives, libraries, and other institutions and their staffs invoke fair use to create digital preservation
copies and/or enable digital access to copyrighted materials in their collections?
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">A grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation is funding a series of regional sessions to present the
<i>Code</i> and encourage discussion about its implications. <b>Cranbrook Art Museum</b> will host a session on
<b>Thursday, April 30, 2015</b>, from <b>1:30–4:00 pm</b> in the museum’s deSalle Auditorium. Patricia Aufderheide, one of the Lead Principal Investigators for the
<i>Code</i>, and Janet Landay, Project Manager for the Fair Use Initiative at the College Art Association, will outline the creation and the applications of the document. This will be followed by responses from five Detroit-area visual arts professionals.
The afternoon will end with an open session for questions and discussion by all those in attendance. Please see the attached flyer for more information.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The session is free and open to the public, but we do ask that you RSVP to
<a href="mailto:jdyki@cranbrook.edu">jdyki@cranbrook.edu</a>. Please distribute this invitation widely to others in your institution and professional networks. And do plan to come early (12:30-1:30 pm) for light refreshments and an opportunity to view the
<i>2015 Graduate Degree Exhibition</i> at the Cranbrook Art Museum (free admission for session attendees).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We look forward to seeing you there!<o:p></o:p></p>
