MUSEUM-L readers:
Last week I posted a call for papers on copyright and fair use issues.  A
number of museum-l readers have written to me to note that they never
received the posting.  Below is just the first page (the announcement).
Interested parties are urged to write me to request the remainder of the
document consisting of instructions for contributors and a description of
the journal, Visual Resources.

If you have already received this Call for Papers, permit me to thank you
for your indulgence of this duplication.

R. Baron
