Want to increase access to your collections but don't know where to begin? Join us for our Digitization Basics series and get ready to start scanning!

Description

Digitization is a great way to increase access to your collections and help preserve them over time, but understanding copyright considerations is important to protecting both your organization and intellectual property rights related to your material. Join Biz Gallo, Statewide Digitization Initiatives Coordinator at the Library of Michigan, for the fourth session in the Digitization Basics series. In this session, Copyright Considerations for Digitization Projects, you will learn how to identify the copyright status of items in your collection, how copyright impacts digitization, and how to appropriately apply standardized rights statements to your digitized content.

Instructor: Biz Gallo, Statewide Digitization Initiatives Coordinator, Library of Michigan

This project is made possible by grant funds from the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) administered by the State of Michigan through the Library of Michigan.
