Publisher and author permissions as well as information about fair use in using books in online programs has been updating fast and furiously.
So far, the best go-to resources I've seen are:
- This Google Doc curated by Leah Langby, Library Development and Youth Services Consultant at the IFLS Library System in WI with information and links on copyright and information on public domain.
- School Library Journal has a constantly updated easy to read list of permissions from all publishers and adds to this link as news comes in.
- Jennifer Scott Brown's brilliant google doc for the COVID-19 crisis with author permissions and much much more.
- Read Aloud Canadian Books Program - a one stop website created by the Association of Canadian Publishers to help find access to publisher permissions and guidelines.
- Music Permissions work for streaming storytimes from CLEL (CO Libraries for Early Literacy).
- Publisher Permissions List provides a link to the website of the larger publishers with specific guidelines platforms, availability length, and how to provide credit.
There is also an excellent article Fair Use and Exigent Circumstances by Kyle Courtney, librarian/lawyer/copyright guy in his COVID-19, Copyright Library Superpowers series and this fair use in a crisis article in SLJ
ALA's Carrie Russell, copyright specialist in ALA's Public Policy and Advocacy Office weighs in in this blog post from ALA's Programming Librarian: "Online Storytime & Corona Virus: It's Fair Use, Folks". Do read the whole article. It does not promote unlimited fair use but speaks specifically to what we are going through.
A group of copyright leaders examine fair use in light of the COVID-19 pandemic; includes webinar link.
Word is out that there is a small group from CO's CLEL and ALSC working on a doc of best practices for virtual storytime including music permissions. Stay tuned....
