Newsletter  \nCOPYRIGHT  \n# 1972 MLA CONVENTION NOTES\n\n1970 BIBLIOGRAPHY ANDABSTRACTS  \nAt its December meeting,the MLA ExecutiveCouncil instructed the Executive Secretary tosee that MLA's interests are represented inmatters of copyright and to keep the member-ship informed of developments in this area.Below is a report by Richard J.Schoeck,Director of Research Activities of the FolgerShakespeare Library,who will in the comingmonths serve as the Executive Secretary'srepresentative at meetings in Washington ofthe Ad Hoc Committee of Educational Organi-zations on Copyright Revision.Reports fromMr.Schoeck will appear in future issues of theNewsletter.This initial report concerns therecent decision in the Williams &Wilkinscase that may have implications for scholarsand researchers.  \nWe are happy to report that as of this writing(29 Feb.)plans are to mail Volume 1(Englishand American)of the 1970 Bibliography on 7April.Members should receive copies withinone week after that date.Although the sched-ules are not finalized at this time,our hope isto mail the remaining three volumes in three-wcek intervals after 7 April.Similarly,we arenot certain of the dates for mailing theAbstracts,although at this time it is hopedthat we will mail Volume l by the end ofApril and follow with Volumes II and 1Il inthree-week intervals thereafter.  \nBecause the 1970 Bibliography was thefirst to be composed by computer typesetting(and the production of the Abstracts depend-ent on its composition),we ran into someexpected delays,although we admit to notrealizing how lengthy they would become.Wehasten to point out,however,that the com-puter program\"does work,and with the firstyear's experience behind us,we should nothave similar delays in the future.Presentplans,then,call for mailing the 1971 Bibliog-raphy and Abstracts on schedule,in the fall ofthis year.  \nCopyright and Photocopying  \nWilliams &Wilkins is certain to become ahousehold name with libraries and scholars,for it is now the title of an opinion in theU.S.Court of Claims which radically alters allpast copyright thinking and unquestionablywill influence the new copyright law pending.The Case.The facts were not in dispute,andthey were as follows:The National Institutesof Health and the National Library of Medi-cine made at least one photocopy of each ofeight articles from one or more of the fourjournals published by the plaintiff,The Wil-liams &Wilkins Company of Baltimore.Thecommissioner concluded as a matter of lawthat Williams &Wilkins,the publisher of thejournals in question,\"is entitled to recoverreasonable and entire compensation for in-fringement of copyright.\"(It is clear,how-ever,that the whole of photocopying practiceat the NIH and NLM,characterized by thecommissioner as wholesale copying,was alsoconsidered,and it was judged that this copy-ing met none of the criteria for\"fair use.\")Comment.Prior to judgment,it had beenuniversally understood that on the one handthe legitimate interest of copyright owners notto have their work copied without compensa-tion was to be observed,but that on the otherhand the needs of scholars and researchworkers for copies of parts of copyrightedworks for private use were not to be frus-trated:these were the two polarities of prac-tice during the 1960's as library photocopyingof copyrighted materials continued to in-crease.Thus the o-called “gentlemen's agree-ment”made in 1935 between book publishersand research-and-education-oriented organiza-tions allowed photocopying under these condi-tions:  \n(ii)the photocopying must be done with-out profit to the library,and  \n(iii)the amount copied must not be sosubstantial as to constitute an infringement(Williams &Wilkins,p.19).  \nBut the commissioner in this case observesthat the“gentlemen's agreement”“does nothave,nor has it ever had,the force of lawwith respect to what constitutes copyrightinfringement or 'fair use.\"The defense arguedthat scholars traditionally have made hand-written copies for research and that","cbCaijeZU7f4S7KB","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijeZU7f4S7KB","pdf",696082,"English","# 1972 MLA CONVENTION
