You can download a plug in that works with most blogging platforms that offers up images related to your post - and they are all safe to use - and are automatically credited.Mrs Shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17387206272607855090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12388307.post-1453267527538841282008-04-26T11:46:00.000-04:002008-04-26T11:46:00.000-04:00You're very welcome!

Copyright and fair use are one of the biggest topics I deal with at schooljone aka msmachttp://maclibrary.edublogs.org/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12388307.post-42537945807945449582007-03-26T19:25:00.000-04:002007-03-26T19:25:00.000-04:00I was shocked, after doing the research, to realize how I have broken the rules. I like to think of myself as a goody-two-shoes, but I think I've been barefoot on the fire escape.Mitali Perkinshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16081024119047826077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12388307.post-40906643503378598312007-03-26T18:22:00.000-04:002007-03-26T18:22:00.000-04:00Yes, thank you very much! <BR/><BR/>I recently had an extremely illuminating exchange with a (very kind but firm) author's agent over issues of copyright (after my very first time participating in Poetry Friday) and am somewhat chastened about the whole thing. I'm probably the person most knowledgeable about copyright issues in my school, and yet it turns out I didn't know much--or at least not enough--about this particular area.bookbkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08584616838165132885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12388307.post-79238134480530506292007-03-26T15:41:00.000-04:002007-03-26T15:41:00.000-04:00Excellent review and summary.<BR/>As a school librarian I try VERY HARD to model good copyright manners, proper citations etc.<BR/><BR/>The whole reason I signed up as an Amazon Associate was so I could legally show the covers of the books. They click through to Amazon. <BR/><BR/>On the other side, it is important to understand users DO have rights under Fair Use. I know some librarians who are so worried about copyright compliance that they do not make "fair use" of the rights they do have. <BR/><BR/>Reading a book aloud is NOT a violation!Camillehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10422449200792287901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12388307.post-23371427066036771512007-03-23T14:12:00.000-04:002007-03-23T14:12:00.000-04:00Thank you for doing this - very helpful.

Use the Creative Commons link to find out whether the latter is true. I updated the post for book covers -- great question.Mitali Perkinshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16081024119047826077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12388307.post-8468203510330720652007-03-23T11:12:00.000-04:002007-03-23T11:12:00.000-04:00Mitali,<BR/>This is wonderful.

Is there a place where we can legally get free images of book covers when we do reviews?whimsyhttp://whimsybooks.livejournal.com/noreply@blogger.com
