[This new forum announcement may be of interest to some archivists and
librarians.]


Everyone,

A new online public forum has been launched to discuss the future of
copyright: "Copyright Future". It is presently hosted at YahooGroups:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/copyright-future/

Here's the short description from the forum home page:

"Copyright Future is a public forum to discuss the future direction
of copyright law worldwide. Should it be changed? How should it be
changed? What makes the most sense for our digital future? Etc.

"This group is open to all viewpoints, and to all people whether
they be legal professionals or lay people concerned about the
present and future of copyright."


You may subscribe to CF either through the home page (preferred --
YahooID required), or send a blank email to:

copyright-future-subscribe@yahoogroups.com


We look forward to your joining and participating in the discussion!

Jon Noring
Copyright Future Administrator
