The program expands on the highly successful copyright program aired in September of 2004, Making Copyright Work For Your Library, providing updates and new insights on international issues that impact the national scene, and examines complex copyright and intellectual property issues. John W. Berry, NILRC Executive Director and past president of ALA, will guide the discussion, which includes a panel of experts: Kenneth Crews, Samuel R. Rosen II Professor, Indiana University School of Law; Tomas Lipinski, Associate Professor, School of Information Studies, University of Wisconsin at Milwaukee; and Miriam Nisbet, Legislative Counsel, ALA Washington Office. They will share their visions of the future of copyright in the digital age, giving time to the audience to ask questions and offer feedback.
