Copyright! It touches on almost all areas of practice in libraries and archives, yet many do not feel confident in dealing with it on a day to day basis. Recognising the need, the Australian Libraries Copyright Committee (ALCC) continues to provide free copyright training to member organisations and their employees - ALIA, NSLA, CAUL, NLA, AGLIN, NAA, CAARA and Aust Soc Archivists.

This proactive session aims to arm librarians and archivists with the knowledge and skills to tackle copyright matters in their institution. From document delivery to story time, preservation to twitter, we cover it all and add in questions from the floor.
