Publishers Announce Agreements with Universities on New Copyright Guidelines for Course Content in Digital Formats

Association of American Publishers press release:

The Association of American Publishers (AAP) today announced that three universities—Hofstra, Syracuse and Marquette—have reached agreement with the AAP on new copyright guidelines affirming that educational content delivered to students in digital formats should be treated under the same copyright principles that apply to printed materials.
The guidelines, which were developed separately by the three universities, govern how librarians and faculty members distribute copyrighted content through library electronic course reserves systems, course management systems, faculty and departmental web pages and other digital formats.
