Well, I was giving a presentation on Copyright Law for my class on using multimedia in the classroom. But that was this afternoon. Incidentally, these were the sources I ended up using, just in case anyone else is interested:
http://www.benedict.com
http://teachvu.vu.msu.edu/public/pedagogy
http://www.utsystem.edu/ogc/intellec...y/cprtindx.htm
And another source that might be of interest:
http://www.ala.org/Template.cfm?Sect...tID=25939#newc
The last one describes the "TEACH" act, which is fairly recent, and a bit more specific about how educators can use copyrighted materials.

"The Germans believe that power must reveal itself in hardness and cruelty and then submit themselves gladly and with admiration[...]. They do not believe readily that there is power in meekness and calm."
