Welcome to Know Your Copy Rights…a Web site for librarians who are developing positive educational programs for academic users of copyrighted materials in US not-for-profit institutions. This site looks at copyright from the perspectives of all key academic stakeholders and suggests what each group can do to enhance their copyright practices and advance academic interests. To help libraries undertake a campus copyright educational campaign, a range of tools are offered. Your feedback on what is most useful is encouraged! Remember, the scope of this Web site is on using the works of others for teaching and learning. For information about encouraging academic authors to manage their own intellectual property, see the Author Rights Web site maintained by SPARC. The Association of Research Libraries sponsors the Know Your Copy Rights Web site and initiative. Please read our disclaimer.

Do you know your online rights? How often are legal threats used to silence Internet activity? Help us to find out and counter baseless threats with the "chilling effects clearinghouse." We are gathering a database of cease and desist notices sent to Internet users, and analyzing those letters in issue-spotting FAQs (informal memos) to be posted on the site. The site also offers background material and explanations of the law for people whose online activities include topics such as fan fiction, copyright and the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, trademark and domain names, anonymous speech, and defamation.
