Copyright questions about different formats (data, images, music and video) can be especially difficult. Sometimes the law specifically distinguishes between these different formats, and in most cases there are media-specific considerations that impact a copyright analysis. In this course we will look at four different media, paying special attention to the unique issues for each one and the kinds of information that is important when making copyright decisions for each type of material. We will work through fair use issues for each multimedia format, look at format-specific exceptions in the law, and consider unique issues for seeking permission for film, music, images and data.

TOP REVIEWS FROM COPYRIGHT FOR MULTIMEDIA
Excellent course. The tests and quizzes were challenging. I look forward to taking the copyright for Librarians course as well.
A very good introduction to copyright, fair use, and licensing for all types of multimedia. The 5-step framework is particularly helpful.
I passed all my quizzes but would have really benefited from more specific feedback to any answers I got wrong. It was hard to reflect on why the answer I chose was incorrect without this feature.
I enjoyed the course . I liked the structure of the course. It was easy to learn from these instructors , I think they presented very well.
