Slide # 1
What is Copyright?
Laws have been created to protect authors
and artists that create things that are
creative and “original.”
If someone produces something that is
original – no one else has created anything
quite like it – then that person is the only one
who can copy it, perform it in public, or
publish it, unless he/she gives that
permission to someone else.
That’s what it means to have the right to
copy (copyright).

What is not protected by
copyright law?
• Works that have not been written or recorded (your stories, if
they are not written down, are not protected by copyright law)
• Ideas, procedures, methods, discoveries
• Works that contain no original authorship (for example:
standard calendars, height and weight charts, tape measures
and rulers, etc.)
• Lists of data (such as the telephone book)
• Items in the public domain (meaning works that are available
for anyone to use. All works created before 1923 and most
between 1923-1963 are in the public domain)
• Most U.S. government materials (some items created by
contractors for the government might be copyrighted)
• Facts

What is “fair use”?
Fair Use is a part of the United States
Copyright law.
It allows people to use and make copies of
copyrighted works if they are using them for:
–
–
–
–
–
–
criticism,
comment,
news reporting,
teaching,
scholarship, or
research

Slide # 6
Before using copyrighted work,
ask yourself:
• Is the copying for educational use?
• Is the original material mainly facts, not very
original, and published?
• Are you using small amounts, not whole
sections?
• Is the original material freely available? (Meaning,
the author is not trying to make money on it)
If any answers are “no” – be careful!
The use of that work might not fall under “fair use.”

Slide # 7
Sometimes, it is hard to know how much
of a copyrighted work we can use.
To help us know what is Fair Use, the
“Fair Use Guidelines to
Educational Multimedia”
were created.

Future Uses Beyond Fair Use
If there is a possibility that a
project could be published
beyond the classroom (for
example, published on the
Internet), obtain permissions
when you create your project,
rather than waiting.
