The Copyright Team has two primary areas of responsibility:
- providing internal copyright advice to New Brunswick Libraries administration, staff, and units
- providing external copyright reference service and education to New Brunswick campus faculty, staff, students, and other users.
The Copyright Response Team is a mailing list that responds to reference questions from external users, and includes librarians who specialize in different aspects of copyright.
The Copyright Education Team develops and delivers copyright orientation and review programs for library staff and faculty and, in close cooperation with the Scholarly Communication Team, modules for the Scholarly Communication Road Show program.
Over the next year, the team plans to develop a menu of short modules on topics like general copyright law, fair use, author’s right, codes of best practices, classroom use of copyrighted material, and so on for the road show and other educational purposes.
Janet Brennan Croft is the Team Leader of the Copyright Team. The current members of the Copyright Team are Mei Ling Lo, Caryn Radick, Francesca Gianetti, Megan Lotts, Jon Sauceda, and Leslin Charles.
