Description

Napster, CONFU, and the DMCA . . . No, these are not foreign languages but cases, guidelines, and laws that as an information specialist you need to know about.

The lessons learned from the Napster case, for example, can help you to put the fine print on intellectual property law into context.

This book by intellectual property expert Timothy Wherry is an authoritative, quick reference for the thorny issues of copyright, trademarks, and patents.

With detailed explanations of the various types of intellectual property, how they differ, what they cover, and how the protections affect library work and services to customers, this is a book you will turn to every day for answers. Packed with useful resources, including lists of patent and trademark depositories, useful Websites, and an entire chapter in Q & A form, The Librarian's Guide to Intellectual Property in the Digital Age protects you from overstepping the bounds of legal use in a fast-changing, digital environment.
