The Basics of CopyrightCovers both

unpublished and published works.

It protects the authors of original works.

What is copyright law?The author has immediate protection the

moment their work is created.

I do not own my wedding photos. The photographer that took my pictures at my wedding owns my wedding photographs.

The First Sale DoctrineAn owner or

individual has the right to display, sell, or dispose of copyrighted work.

Copyrighted work may not be reproduced without authorization.

Public DomainWork that is not protected by copyright

law,

An expired copyright,

The owner of a copyright dedicates their work, or

The owner fails to renew the copyright.

This is how works arrive in the public domain.

Duration of CopyrightAny piece of work that was

created on or after January 1, 1978 will be covered under the terms of copyright protection from the time the author created it until 70 years after the death of the author.

Fair UseAllows the usage of

works that are copyright protected in such cases as research, commentary, news reporting, and education.

The TEACH ActIn addition to fair use, educators

have a set of rights.

In the classroom, educators may display and perform any work under copyright law.
