HIT:CD's COPYRIGHT

[Aldie Matta <loringa@BELLSOUTH.NET>]

Thanks to all who offered advice/opinion. Some of you even got a little
hostile! I received info from ALA and from a listserv that deals with
copyright issues, in addition to a lawyer and several university professors
(on other technology related listservs). Thanks to all. Though this was an
issue that could have happened your responses made sure that it did not. It
is sometimes very hard for teachers to understand why something they feel is
in the students best interest and meant to help can be an illegal activity.
We as librarians must continue to help them understand the copyright issue,
that is very obvious. The legalese language is the problem and individual
interpretation doesn't help. How I wish plain old straight forward language
could be used...any way thanks a million!!
