Kudzu-Ops Mailing List: ASERL webinar: CAA's Code of Best Practices in Fair Use for the Visual Arts

[John Burger (jburger]

ASERL Friends:

Our Scholarly Communications Interest Group is pleased to offer a webinar to 
describe the College Art Association’s Code of Best Practices in Fair Use for 
the Visual Arts.  Led by Anne Collins Goodyear, Co-Director of the Bowdoin 
College Museum of Art, this session will take place on July 15, 2016 at 2pm ET. 
This webinar will look at four primary topics. First: it will address the 
history and background of the development of the Code, describing how the 
College Art Association (CAA) became involved. Next, it will describe the need 
in the field of the arts that CAA saw for creating such a Code. Third, the 
presentation will consider why CAA chose to take on this project. Finally, this 
webinar will describe how CAA is educating its members and allied colleagues 
about the Code and documenting its implementation. 

In looking at these stages in the inspiration, crafting, and implementation of 
CAA’s Code of Best Practices in Fair Use for the Visual Arts, the webinar will 
explain how concerns expressed initially by individual artists, scholars, 
curators, and publishers soon became emblematic of larger issues facing the 
field of the arts at large. Perhaps most importantly, this presentation will 
provide an opportunity to explore how the development of the Code is now 
shifting attitudes and policies regarding the fair use of copyrighted materials 
and opening up new opportunities for scholarship and creative practice in the 
arts.
