Presenter Kiowa Hammons guides us through what intellectual property is, what copyright law in the U.S. protects (and what it doesn’t), and how long it lasts. He also touches on how U.S. copyright connects to other countries through treaties. Viewers can expect to take away:
- An understanding of the types of rights granted to creators under U.S. copyright law
- How the law determines copyright ownership of a particular work
- The duration of copyright protections and how works enter the public domain
This webinar is the first in a three-part series focusing on basic principles of U.S. copyright law and its impact on us as library professionals, and in our own creative lives.
Part 2, taking place live on Tuesday, February 25, 2022 from 4:00pm to 5:00pm ET, will cover exceptions and limitations. Register here: [ Ссылка ]
