Section 106 of the Copyright Act defines the right to dsdsdsdsd or dsdsdsdsdsdsds a work as an dsdsdsdsdsd right of the copyright holder. The Act also provides, however, some exceptions under which it is not necessary to ask the copyright holder's permission to dsdsdsd or dsdsdsa a work. One is the dsdsdsds use exception dsdsds in Section 107, which is summarized in the preamble. Another set of exceptions, dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd in Sections 1 10( 1)-(2), dsdsdsd instructors and students to dsdsds or dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd copyrighted materials without permission from the copyright holder under certain dsdsds defined conditions. Section I l0( 1) permits teachers and students in a nonprofit dsdsdsds institution to dsdsdsd or dsdsdsdsdsd any copyrighted work in the course of face-to-face teaching activities. In face-to-face instruction, such teachers and students may act out a dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd, dsdsdsdsdsd dsdsdsa a poem, dsdsdsdsd a cartoon or a dsdsdsdsdsd, or dsdsdsdsd a videotape so dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd as the copy of the videotape was dsdsds obtained. In essence, Section 110(l) permits performance and dsdsdsa of any dsdsdsdsdsd of copyrighted work, and even a dsdsdsdsd work, as a part of face-to-face instruction. Section 110(2) permits performance of a nondramatic dsdsdsa or dsdsdsdsds work or dsdsdsdsdsdsds of any work as a part of a transmission in some distance learning contexts, under the dsdsds conditions set out in that Section. Section 110(2) does not dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd performance of dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd or dsdsdsd works as a part of a transmission The dsdsdsds further requires that the transmission be dsdsds dsdsdsd and of dsdsdsa assistance to the teaching dsdsdsdsds of the transmission and that the transmission be received in a classroom or other place normally dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd to instruction or by persons whose disabilities or dsdsdsds circumstances dsdsdsa dsdsdsdsd at a classroom or other place normally dsdsdsdsd to instruction. The dsdsdsa of these guidelines is to dsdsdsdsdsd guidance for the performance and dsdsdsa of copyrighted works in some of the distance learning environments that have dsdsds since the enactment of Section 110 and that may not dsdsdsd the dsdsdsdsdsdsds conditions of Section 1 l0(2).. They dsdsdsds instructors who dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd the conditions of these guidelines to dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd and dsdsdsdsdsd copyrighted works as if they were dsdsdsa in face-to-face instruction. They may, for example, dsdsds an dsdsdsa work, even a dsdsdsdsdsdsds one, in a one-time transmission to students so dsdsdsdsds as they dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd the other conditions of these guidelines. They may not, however, allow such transmissions to dsdsds in copies for students unless they have permission to do so, any more than face-to-face instructors may make copies of dsdsdsdsds works for their students without permission. The developers of these guidelines dsdsdsdsd that these guidelines dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd the principles of dsdsdsdsdsdsds use in combination with the dsdsdsd provisions of Sections 110( l)-(2). In most respects, they dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd the provisions of Section 1l0(2). In some cases, students and teachers in distance learning situations may
recommends consideration of elements of the Dsdsdsdsd dsdsdsdsd, along with other possible options. We have not otherwise seen dsdsdsdsd evidence of a need for a dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd solution dsdsdsa away from the general dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd market dsdsdsdsdsdsds of current law.389 New dsdsdsdsd licensing mechanisms for distance education or restrictions on license terms, for example, do not seem dsdsdsdsdsdsds. It should be dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd in mind that the proposed amendments to sections 110(2) and 112 should dsdsdsdsdsdsds some of the dsdsdsd difficulties. Given the state of flux of dsdsdsd licensing systems and dsdsdsds measures, and the waning influence of the elements of fear and unfamiliarity, problems of dsdsdsdsd and cost may dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd to an dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd level. At this point in dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd we dsdsdsdsdsdsds giving the market for licensing of nonexempted uses leeway to dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd and dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd. Because the field of dsdsdsdsd distance education is dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd so dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd, and dsdsdsdsds licensing and dsdsdsa measures may be on the horizon, we dsdsdsdsd revisiting the licensing issue in a relatively dsdsdsdsd period of dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd. The passage of two or three years after enactment of any amendment would dsdsdsa some evaluation of its dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd. At that dsdsds, if dsdsdsa and dsdsdsdsdsdsds problems dsdsdsdsdsd, a number of options could be considered. With the advantage of further experience, the approaches of other countries could be evaluated.390 Or Congress could seek to dsdsdsdsdsdsds some form of dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd incentives for the development of more dsdsdsdsdsdsds and dsdsdsds licensing mechanisms. Both performance and "dsdsds" rights are managed for the music industry by dsdsdsdsdsd collectives. The dsdsdsa performance rights organizations, the Dsdsdsdsd Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers (ASCAP at www.ascap.com) and Broadcast Music, Inc. (BMI at www.bmi.com) have provided dsdsdsa, relatively low cost performance licenses to dsdsdsd institutions for decades. Negotiated with two key organizations representing dsdsdsds institutions, the National Association of College and University Business Officers (NACUBO) and the Dsdsds Council on Education (ACE at www.acenet.org), these licenses dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd any dsdsdsdsdsd of non-dramatic performance a faculty dsdsdsa or student might dsdsdsdsd. Both organizations currently license Web sites, but the focus on these licensing programs is on dsdsdsds rather than dsdsdsds organizations. They also seek out on a dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd basis non-licensed sites, including dsdsdsdsdsd sites, with music in dsdsdsdsds form using a variety of techniques including web crawlers. The dsdsdsdsdsd dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd is contacted and licensing is offered. The kinds of uses uncovered typically dsdsdsdsdsdsds activities such as college dsdsdsds stations, for which a standard license fee is $250. Although standards and technology to dsdsdsdsds music on the Web are only in the dsdsdsdsd stages of development, these performance licensing organizations believe they must dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd with licenses now in dsdsdsdsdsd with their dsdsds obligations to their licensors. Though a license for dsdsds uses is currently "under discussion," the terms are dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd, as is any dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd of when such a license might be available in the market place. "Dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd" rights, i.e., the licensing of music for use in records, tapes, CD's and dsdsdsa delivery are managed by The Dsdsdsdsdsdsds Fox Agency, Inc., a dsdsdsds dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd dsdsdsdsd of university's own resources in an dsdsdsa dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd and dsdsdsd market. As a dsdsdsds, the office of university counsel is being consulted more and more dsdsdsdsd on such issues. Those needs are creating a need for dsdsdsa contracts that dsdsds business partnerships that go beyond dsdsdsa license agreements. For example, a major university planned to dsdsdsdsdsdsds dsdsdsd video of a dsdsdsa class to several satellite sites and wanted to dsdsdsd the text digitally as well. The text for the course was not available in dsdsdsd form, nor did the publisher have the resources, or the expertise, to dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd it. In dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd negotiations, the university and the publisher dsdsdsds a dsdsds dsdsds dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd in which the university dsdsdsdsd responsibility for the conversion and was accorded the right to dsdsdsa the dsdsds text as well.

If the dsdsdsd institution's network or technology used to access the dsdsdsa multimedia project dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd under Section 2 of these guidelines cannot dsdsdsdsd duplication of copyrighted dsdsdsdsdsd, students or, educators may use the multimedia dsdsdsdsd projects over an otherwise dsdsdsdsd network for a period of only 15 days after its dsdsds real-time dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd use in the course of instruction or 15 days after its assignment for dsdsdsds self-study. After that period, one of the two use copies of the dsdsdsdsdsdsds multimedia project may be placed on dsdsds in a learning resource center, library or dsdsdsdsdsdsds facility for on-site use by students enrolled in the course. Students shall be dsdsdsa that they are not permitted to make their own copies of the dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd multimedia project. 3.3 Educator Use for Dsdsdsd Conferences: Educators may dsdsds or dsdsdsd their own dsdsdsdsds multimedia projects dsdsdsd under Section 2 of these guidelines in presentations to their peers, for example, at workshops and conferences. 3.4 Educator Use for Dsdsdsdsds Portfolio Educators may dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd multimedia projects dsdsdsdsds under Section 2 of these guidelines in their dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd portfolios for later dsdsdsdsdsd uses such as tenure dsdsdsdsdsdsds or job interviews. 4, LIMITATIONS - Dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd, PORTION, Dsdsdsd AND DISTRIBUTION The preparation of dsdsdsd multimedia projects incorporating copyrighted works under Section 2, and the use of such projects under Section 3, are dsdsdsdsdsdsds to the limitations dsdsdsa below. 4.1 Dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd Limitations Educators may use their dsdsds multimedia projects dsdsdsd for dsdsdsdsds purposes under Section 2 of these guidelines for teaching courses, for a period of up to two years after the first dsdsdsa use with a class. Use beyond that dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd period, even for dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd purposes, requires permission for each copyrighted portion dsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsdsd in the production. Students may use their dsdsds multimedia projects as dsdsdsa in Section 3.1. 4.2 Portion Limitations Portion limitations mean the dsdsdsa of a copyrighted work that can reasonably be used in dsdsdsa multimedia projects under these guidelines regardless of the dsdsdsdsds medium from which the copyrighted works are taken. In the dsdsdsdsds means the dsdsdsa dsdsdsdsd of copyrighted dsdsdsdsdsd from a dsdsdsds copyrighted work that is permitted to be used in an dsdsdsdsdsd multimedia project without permission under these guidelines. These limitations dsdsdsa cumulatively to each educator's or student's multimedia project(s) for the same dsdsdsdsds semester, cycle or dsdsdsdsdsd. All students should be instructed about the
