Here at Northwestern University we have been working on policy development
for electronic reserve, and have a general description of our system and
some of the copyright issues entailed at http://www.nwu.edu/at/ltg/ers.html
Because the issue of copyright and electronic reserve received some
attention at the midwinter ALA meeting in San Antonio, I did put together
some of our University's discussion with some of those involved in the Draft
Guidelines process at
http://www.nwu.edu/at/ltg/staff_files/brian/e-reserve/ersoverv.htm

Note that the draft guidelines posted there have been SUPERCEDED by later
iterations.  We feel the guidelines development process is coming along well.
