- Copyright Advisory Network- brought to you by ALA's Office of Information Technology Policy. Geared toward librarians and copyright issues as pertains to the profession, an insightful quote on the homepage is "with copyright, there are no definitive answers." How deliciously evil sounding. Some nice resources on the page are:
- The Copyright Genie
- the Fair Use Evaluator
- the Is It Protected by Copyright Slider- (nice visual infographic)
- the Section 108 (of the US Copyright Code) Spinner
- and the Exceptions for Instructors eTool
- the Copyright and Fair Use Guidelines for Teachers chart- created by Tech(nology) and Learning, a site owned by NewBay Media, which specializes in creating products for the K-12 education market, this chart breaks down what you are thinking of using (it's medium), how you can use it, and the fine prints according to media.
- The Creative Commons website- Want to move beyond the restrictions of copyright? The CC can teach you how to put your stuff out there for use, while also protecting your right to make money off your stuff.
- The cute Cyberbee Copyright Classroom. Kind of simplistic, but an easy way to get started and explore the very basics of the issue with students using an interactive FAQ format.
- LoC's Taking the Mystery Out of Copyright- Flash based videos targeted toward younger teens present the info in comic style with story based examples.
- and finally, Teaching Copyright, a project of the Electronic Frontier Foundation has a thorough curriculum for older teens.
Created during my years as a Master's student at Drexel University's iSchool, I now maintain the blog to post reflections on my information seeking and organizing projects as a librarian loose in the world.

Resources for Teaching Copyright
I like the list, but not the formatting of the blog where I found the original post. Mad props to them for collecting this list, but I'm going to recreate the list for myself.
