Presentation
New Horizons Integrating the Last 20 into digital projects
DPLA Fest (2019)
  • Virginia A Dressler
Abstract
The session will outline one approach to assessing titles that fall within a portion of U.S. copyright law (Section 108(h)) to include published works from 1925-1944 into digital initiatives. This talk will include current work that involves library personnel from digital projects, copyright, cataloging, collection development and systems to identify and select titles that qualify in the copyright exception, focusing on defining "forgotten" and "neglected" works. The talk will provide tips for librarians to start a Last 20 project with some initial steps for collections of any size.
