I'm very interested in the fact that "obtaining artists' copyright permissions" is not one of the examples mentioned. Is this a "use" of your file bank that hasn't come up?  That is, would Alberta artists be interested in having an address on file at this facility so that they could be contacted for copyright clearance?
