University of California Copyright Education
Web Site
The University of California Copyright Education Web Site was created to respond to educators' and scholars' needs for information on copyright policies and laws, and how to apply them to academic and scholarly work. The information provided here is intended to educate the larger UC community about education-related copyright issues.
In 2002 the UCSF Library launched a new electronic reserve system
called EReserves.
EReserves allows you to place print-only materials on the web for
use in your online courses.

Common Scenarios of Fair Use Issues: The Common Scenarios of Fair Use Issues encompass examples of the application of fair use when instructors post materials on WebCT, Oncourse, Angel, or other course management system (CMS). Because fair use seldom offers simple, clean, concise rules--and every situation will have its own set of facts--these scenarios should help instructors make fair-use determination.
The Copyright (©) Primer is an interactive tutorial that overviews the underlying principles behind copyright in the United States, outlines the requirements for copyright protection as well as discusses the parameters of use and access of copyrighted material. From the Center for Intellectual Property at the University of Maryland University College.

University of California Policy on Copyright Ownership The University
of California Policy on Copyright Ownership states that the
creation of copyrighted works is one of the ways the University
fulfills its mission of contributing to the body of knowledge for
the public good. The University encourages the creation of original
works of authorship and the free expression and exchange of ideas.
Policy on Ownership of Course Materials The University's goal in preparing the Policy
on Ownership of Course Materials was to clarify existing policy concepts and extend their
application to works prepared for teaching and, in particular, to
provide useful guidance for faculty, staff and administrators about
intellectual property rights for teaching materials in digital form.
Because the use of technology in instruction is a rapidly evolving
area, the Policy provides that the Standing Committee on Copyright
will monitor its implementation and recommend revisions based on
experience.
