Very sensible. It allows you circumvent the DMCA in order to use a small
portion of a work for a class etc. I especially appreciate that it really
spells out this is a small portion and for a transformative purpose.

Okay, pardon me if I missed this issue being dealt with earlier this
summer. I have been out of town a lot and have not followed up on some
threads.
I am looking for an FAQ for the DMCA and TEACH act for higher ed
faculty. You know, where they think they can grab a DVD off the shelf
and have it
I think the Exceptions for Instructors eTool that I created with the
help/support of the Copyright Subcommittee of ALA's Office for Information
Technology Policy is a good place to start.

Incredible! We won!
Three cheers for Carleton Jackson and his crew on the East Coast, Carrie
Russell and the ALA Washington Office, and me and my posse out
here...restores at least a bit of my faith in process.

The new rules allow circumvention for the incorporation of short portions of
motion pictures into new works for the purpose of criticism or comment in
three instances:

ooops...that's discrete (not discreet--a word that I've been told isn't in
my vocabulary)
As you've commented, Linda, there are really TWO discreet issues at hand:
1. Breaking of circumvention for the purpose of extracting clips--covered
by the DMCA and now a lot more liberal than
I notice also that the restriction on the ownership of the DVDs in question has
gone away, which is marvelous.
Doesn't the wording imply that the exception is for circumventing access
controls precisely in cases where fair use would normally apply? I.e., short
clips of the sort one could use
Damn. You beat me to it. I was composing a pithy response but I will

Actually Gary I disagree. I think this rule reaffirms the terms of what
Fair Use is considering you have a least one major institution and more
than a few academics claiming it actually can cover an ENTIRE feature work.
Here is the wording in the new rule (or whatever we call it)
in order to
Could it not be interpreted that a student in another discipline making a video
for a class project will also have this protection under the second and third
sections? Students could argue that a class project in history or some other
field of study creating a video is either a documentary
This ruling has NOTHING directly to do with the nature, interpretation, or
application of fair use.

No I read it that way too again provided it follows the standard short
portion from a legal copy rule.

OK, I read the sections in the Registrar of Copyright's Recommendations (found
at the original link http://www.copyright.gov/1201/) that relate to this topic.
Pages 35-43 explain why they are purposely not including language about
infringing and noninfringing uses of the content in documentary
I hope Chris Lewis will forward these clear guidelines to his colleagues
Pat Aufderheide of the Center for Social Media at American University
and Peter Jazy of the American University Law School. It may help them
clarify their position on whether every educational use of copyrighted
material, in
Someone just asked me, and I realized I did not have the answer -- does this
Rule-making by the Librarian of Congress carry the weight of law? is it a
binding step, or a step on the path to a binding interpretation?

It clearly states that in order to be entitled to break encryption the use
MUST be for a SMALL portion used for criticism or comment which if nothing
else totally negates any claim that one can stream an encrypted film ( and
most DVDs have some kind of encryption) and justify it by fair use. We
I think Gary is being a little disingenuous to say that today's ruling
has absolutely nothing to do with fair use. One need merely read UCLA's
legal brief to see that they are making a fair use claim for breaking
encryption not to use clips to critique or comment but to stream
entire works.
This is actually funny ironic.since Ms. Aufderheide is a leading
proponent of the claim that ENTIRE works are fair use.I wonder if she
noticed the part about SMALL PORTIONS for use in critique criticism.
