Chryssi on Copyright

Well, even ALA's Copyright specialist doesn't seem to be completely clear on how the laws apply in certain areas, but at least she tries to offer advice. It seem as if I use thumbnails for the book covers, I might be able to use them and since it is for a library, it's educational ...so she seems to think that falls under fair use...but I still may find another way to spotlight the books without using the covers.

I thought the Copyright Advisory Network website (linked from the University of California, Irvine's Copyright Guidelines website) was a good resource though, at least to give librarians a forum to discuss these issues.
