Resources

We've pulled together a variety of links to resources aimed at helping students, faculty, and staff use technology more effectively and efficiently.

Copyright Information
Complying with copyright law is more challenging to academic institutions than ever before. The traditional focus on photocopied classroom handouts and paper-based interlibrary loan has evolved into a more complex set of content uses such as the Internet, course-management systems, customized coursepacks, and e-reserves, prompting educators and students alike to ask a whole new set of copyright questions. To help answer these questions, Academic Technologies has developed the Campus Guide to Copyright Compliance. It addresses difficult copyright questions and provides guidelines and resources to help faculty, students, and staff ensure compliance campus-wide.
