Copyright! Complicated, confusing, and not clear-cut. What does a librarian need to know? Michael Sauers and Laura Johnson, from the Nebraska Library Commission, will present scenarios to discuss, as we all shine a light on the subject and try to figure out what a librarian needs to do.
(Early on in the show we have some trouble with the polling software and it takes us a minute or so to solve the problem. Please bear with us through that small section of the recording.)
