COPYRIGHT UTOPIA: Alternative Visions, Methods &
Policies
May 21-23, 2007
Marriott Inn & Conference Center
www.umuc.edu/cip/symposium
Adelphi, Maryland
What would copyright utopia look like? Do you envision an
island
paradise surrounded by oceans of free content lapping at
your feet? Is
every piece of data or content freely and fully
available--no
restrictions, no fees, and no questions asked? Or is
everything under
lock and key with access granted only to a privileged
membership? Or do
you wish to live somewhere in between? As colleges and
universities
continue to make decisions managing third party copyrighted
works, let's
pause and ask difficult questions of our legal structure and
human
needs. What methods and policies would best serve students,
faculty,
publishers, and the academic enterprise?
Some confirmed speakers and panelists include:
*William Fisher, Berkman Center for Internet & Society,
Harvard Law;
*Fred von Lohmann, Electronic Frontier Foundation;
*Donna Ferullo, Purdue University;
*Kenneth Crews, Indian University-Purdue University
