Copyright. The very word can make an archivist's eyes glaze over. But this book is here to help.

Fear of copyright can sometimes make everything an archivist does-preservation, reference, digitization-feel like a prelude to an unintended lawsuit.

In this book, readers learn core parts of the U.S. copyright law, how to apply basic tools to address archives-specific issues, and learn effective use of existing exceptions and limitations. The goal is to provide archivists with the ability to navigate copyright to achieve the ultimate archival mission: to preserve the broadest array of heritage material and enable as wide a use as possible.

This book:

- Provides a foundation for how to read the copyright law, review legal literature, and navigate authoritative websites and news sources;
