Copyright and Fair Use for Faculty: Course Resources

Why These Resources Help

We all have resources we have come to rely on in our courses.  Whether it is a tried and true text or a VHS from 1987.  Sometimes utilizing those materials in a modern environment can be challenging due to copyright.  The Library has tools and resources to help! 

Our eBook Collections allow the freedom of breaking from traditional print texts, coupled with the ease of accessing them 24/7.

Streaming Videos

Streaming videos are videos you view over the web, as opposed to downloading to your local device.  YouTube, Netflix and Hulu are examples of streaming video.

DRM

Digital Rights Management (DRM) refers to rules media vendors put on a user's ability to save, share, or otherwise copy items from their media collections.  DRM may also include a limit on the number of users who can access the items simultaneously.  Each media collection has different DRM rules, look to their help pages to find out.
