Copyright affects everyone and every type of published and unpublished media, including print, electronic content, photographs, art, and music. Learn what copyright law covered before 1978, what has changed since 1978, how copyright law is applied to electronic technology, when copyright begins, how to register your work, and how to avoid infringing someone’s else’s work. What would you do if someone infringed your copyright? Cheryl Besenjak’s presentation will cover all of these issues in depth. Cheryl also invites you to email your copyright questions to her before her presentation on February.
