"Academic librarians, deans, and administrators are often the go-to source on a college campus for copyright information. Given the numerous laws, guidelines, and policies that surround copyright issues, however, misunderstanding and confusion are the norm and the chances of a library professional providing misinformation can be high. Ferullo presents an invaluable look at common copyright situations in higher education. The book is divided into chapters by audience type, including librarians, administrators, and students. There are also chapters relevant to those institutions looking for guidance on how to establish a copyright office or copyright officer. While the scenarios presented are incredibly complex, the lists of questions provided for each increase understanding of that particular situation while providing necessary information higher education professionals can use to conduct a thorough reference interview or design a plan of action. VERDICT Working with copyrighted materials is a necessary part of the learning and teaching process in higher education. This work allows librarians to better understand the complexities of situations as they arise and guides readers toward additional resources of interest.
