NINCH & the University of Oregon are pleased to announce a Copyright &
Fair Use Town Meeting on Creating Policy in Eugene, Oregon, on Monday,
November 19, 2001. This is a full-day program (beginning at 8AM and

opportunities for q&a. While there is no registration fee, registration
is required to guarantee your place; space is limited. Registration
deadline: November 9, 2001.
The NINCH Copyright Town Meetings seek to balance expert opinion and
audience participation on the basics of copyright law, the
implications of copyright online, recent changes in copyright law and
practice, and practical issues related to the networking of cultural
heritage materials. The program will include plenty of time for
audience questions, comments and discussion.
At Eugene, the program will feature a stellar panel of experts, including:
* Laura N. Gasaway, Director of the Law Library & Professor of Law,
University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill
* Georgia K. Harper, Manager, Intellectual Property Section, The
University of Texas System, Office of General Counsel
* Kenneth D. Salomon, Dow, Lohnes & Albertson
Here's a quick summary of some of the topics we plan to cover:
* The Basics of a Good Policy
* Creating Policy in the Real World
* Getting the Ball Rolling: You Can Make Something Happen
* Workshop: Negotiating the Hot Issues
* Workshop: Initiating the Policy Process
The program will take place on the campus of the University of Oregon.
The lectures and workshops will be in Gerlinger Alumni Hall. A box
lunch will be offered to participants in the Knight Library Browsing
Room.
