Electronic Reserves and Fair Use - ARL
With recent changes to the U.S. Copyright Law, including the passage of the TEACH Act, there is renewed interest in identifying library best practices in applying fair use to electronic reserves operations. In the late 1990s, electronic reserves were a primary focus of the Conference on Fair Use (CONFU). Libraries and higher education associations rejected the draft CONFU electronic reserves guidelines because they were highly proscriptive and did not provide the necessary flexibility inherent in fair use. Instead of guidelines, the library community has developed a statement to serve as a framework within which libraries may assess risk in terms of applying the four fair use factors to electronic reserves operations.
