Hi folks, I just added a book cover template to the WikiEducator site (based directly on the wikipedia book cover template). When working on this with students earlier this year I contacted four publishers and asked if they felt that use of a low resolution image book cover was fair use. I received one reply from just one publishers lawyer and he agreed with my interpretation.
I was curious if this issue has been tossed around already in this group (I'm a newbie). I see the need also for templates to tag images in the public domain (with sub categories for images with expired copyrights, images created by government agencies and placed in the public domain). Any thoughts? I can't claim any expertise in this area, but I see Wikipedia as an example of one approach to handling these issues.
