What You Don't Know About Copyright, but Should; Chronicle of Higher Education, 5/29/11

Jennifer Howard, Chronicle of Higher Education; What You Don't Know About Copyright, but Should:

"If Nancy Sims had to pick one word to describe how researchers, students, and librarians feel about copyright, it would probably be "confused."...

For instance, in a recent informal survey she conducted at the university, only 30 percent or so of the faculty respondents knew the answers to basic questions such as how one gets a copyright and how long it lasts. (Librarians did somewhat better.)"
