fair use and library exemptions, and;

awareness within the North American higher education and research 
communities. 

The first day will provide an overview of domestic and 
international legislation, with a focus on proposed legislative 
changes and treaty proposals.  The second day will highlight the 
relationship between copyright and licensing  under contract law.
