Fair Use Rights for DVD's - New Policy

During the past year, we have received several queries about permitted use of digital materials for educational purposes. On July 26, a change was made in this area which provides greater freedom in the use of DVD’s.
An excellent summary of the expanded exemption for education purposes can be found at the Chronicle of Higher Education website at http://chronicle.com/blogPost/Letting-Us-Rip-Our-New-Right/25797/?sid=wc&utm_source=wc&utm_medium=en
