the visual guide three components: - A Tutorial :: provide non-lawyers with a basic understanding of copyright. - A List :: use case law to identify and explain why some content may not be covered by copyright. - A Mash Up :: compare potentially copyrighted content to reduce the grey area.

basic premise this is not an automated lawyer! this is not a substitute for thinking! this will develop one’s thinking about copyright. this will grow stronger with more content.

the visual guide - what’s next - Synthesize :: our workflow and the product of the law class - Pilot :: for this summer’s M1/M2 medical content - Collaborate :: with others who use similar analyses

considerations - this is an intermediate step on to producing OER without closed third party content. - this is not legal advice

considerations - burden on the end user to make decisions and distinctions about content, to have to think about copyright within their jurisdiction. - liability associated with downstream use and distribution

considerations - need to do more research regarding international jurisdiction. - learn about practices within other institutions and how you deal with third party content.
