[Videolib] Online copyright tools
There used to be several tools for evaluating public domain and other legal situations with respect to specific media items at http://librarycopyright.net/ But today I find that site (and other sites which purport to have these tools) are marked with red warning signs that they are dangerous and must be avoided. What's going on?

It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.

Thanks. It looks like maybe it was hacked, then, and became not-secure, based on the wording. I hope it will be back soon.

The first 26 recordings are up and available to all at http://www.lib.berkeley.edu/MRC/womenpacifica.html Real player required... Anyone involved in women's studies groups or organizations, pls forward this info.

[Videolib] Copyright Advisory Network status
Cindy is exactly right. The CAN site was compromised - big time. We hired an outside contractor to help us clean it up because ALA staff would not do it (it is a big and tricky job with many steps). Our contractor tells me that the site will be back up and running before Annual conference. Later this year, the OITP Copyright Education Subcommittee (previously known as the OITP Copyright Advisory Committee) - who dreamed up and created the site - are going to evaluate the site, and make some changes to make it better. I would welcome any ideas.

There was a virus issue on their server. They finally have someone hired to clean and host the files more securely. Everything should be back up in a week.
