EIFL is pleased to organize a webinar on three legal concepts commonly found in copyright laws around the world - fair use, fair dealing and fair practice. This is the last in a series of four EIFL webinars on copyright and libraries (further details below).
Often debated and sometimes misunderstood, the webinar will briefly describe the origins and key characteristics of each concept of ‘fairness’, which countries have these flexible provisions in their copyright laws, how libraries can benefit, as well as trends and developments.
As a bonus, the presentation will be followed by an extended Q&A. ‘Ask us anything' (about copyright and libraries) will round off this series of four webinars on copyright and libraries held in September and October 2024.
The expert speaker is Jonathan Band PLLC.
- Date and time: Wednesday, 23 October 2024 @ 2pm - 3pm London (GMT+1). Check your local time here.

Librarians everywhere are welcome to attend the webinars. We especially encourage librarians in EIFL partner countries to attend. Librarians from EIFL partner countries who attend all four webinars can apply for a certificate of attendance from EIFL (an application form will be available after the last webinar). The webinar will be recorded for later viewing.
