Ideas for Copyright Camp?
Some of you may remember that last year’s Copyright Camp was an unconference; that is, we had participants self organize into sessions. We really liked that experiment, and we want to keep it going.
That’s why, this year, we’re taking suggestions for sessions; we want you to let us know the kinds of things you’re interested in talking about. We have some tricks up our sleeves as well, so there will be some pre-established programming. We’ll let you know the details in the coming weeks.
So campers, if you have a great idea and want to talk about it, let us know in the comments and we’ll see what we can do!

Are any of you museums/collections interested in bringing examples your own organizations as the focus for practical breakout discussions on how to use Creative Commons?
What are the different types of Creative Commons licenses and how do I apply them to my work? Where can I publish my work and what happens when someone wants to use it? I will cover the basics of open sharing for folks new to the scene.

Interesting article on ‘Digital cultural collections in an age of reuse and remix’ relevant to our theme…

As a volunteer for a low-budget historical society, I’ve been helping scan a unique collection of irreplaceable antique photographs.
Some members have suggested posting the scanned images on shorpy.com or Yahoo/Flickr or Google/Picasa.
What other options do we have for publishing the scanned images that would prevent someone else from claiming copyright on them?
Copyright and methods of access to content (ie: streaming, public screenings/displays, the open web, libraries)
I’m interested in licensed e-resource management and copyright. One of the high-interest issues is DRM. Recently, Aaron Swartz was indicted for wire fraud for downloading thousands of articles from JSTOR (which were subsequently returned). Is it really like arresting someone for checking out too many books from the library? according to David Segal of Demand Progress. And people talk about crossing a line. Is it a bright line or could a case be made for fair use?
