Section 108 Study Group Report ix Executive Summary Television News Exception

• Issue: – Subsection 108(f)(3) permits libraries and archives to copy television

news programs off the air and lend the copies to users. Should this exception be amended to permit libraries and archives to provide access to those copies by means other than the lending of physical copies?

• Recommendations: – 1. The television news exception should be amended to allow

libraries and archives to transmit view-only copies of television news programs electronically by streaming and similar technologies to other section 108- eligible libraries and archives for purposes of private study, scholarship, or research under certain conditions, and after a reasonable period has passed since the original transmission.

– 2. Any amendment should not include an exception permitting libraries and archives to transmit downloadable copies.


Fair Use: TranformativenessBeyond Vanderbilt

4 Factors 17 USC 107

• The purpose and character of the use

• The nature of the copyrighted work

• The amount and substantiality of the portion used

• The effect of the use on the market or value of the copyrighted work

Transformativeness

• Did the unlicensed use “transform” the copyrighted material by using it for a different purpose?

• Was the amount and nature of the material used appropriate?


UCLA Transformativeness

• Selection of sources useful in teaching and research

• Video capture• Metadata updates• Archive search• Tool development

– Face recognition

• Leverage images and closed captions

Post Capture Processing


Use Cases: News Archive in Teaching and Research

• Multi-modal research and teaching• Comparative studies • Use as the object of a social, political, or cultural

critique• Use for illustration or example• Capturing, Reproducing, to memoralize or

preserve


• “Libraries of all kinds during the centuries of their existence have had a common objective—one so generally accepted that it is seldom made explicit. It is the conservation and organization of the world’s resources of recorded thought and fact so as to make them available for present and future users.”

• Robert D. Leigh, The Public Library in the United States, 1950
