Cites & Insights July 2012 (12:6) available

[Walt Crawford]

The July 2012 issue of Cites & Insights (12:6) is now available at
http://citesandinsights.info/civ12i6.pdf.

The issue is 32 pages long. A single-column 6x9 version, designed for
use on ereaders, is also available at
http://citesandinsights.info/civ12i6on.pdf. The single-column version
is 62 pages long and intended only for ereading, not for printing.

The issue includes:
Libraries: Give Us a Dollar: A Case Study pp. 1-6

    Would a refined version of Give Us a Dollar and We'll Give You
Back Four be directly useful to a few hundred (or a few thousand)
public libraries? This two-part example shows how a mythical New York
library (directly based on two real libraries) might use a heavily
revised version--and how it might use the current version. I'm still
looking for reviewers and feedback before deciding how to proceed;
these case studies might help.

Policy: Copyright: Fair Use, Part 2 pp. 6-29

    The second part of the fair use roundup that began in the May
issue. This part includes cites & comments for eleven items relating
to fair use and academic libraries (other than the GSU case), ten
items on various aspects of fair use in the real world--and a "once
over lightly" on GSU events since the judge issued her decision,
noting 18 discussions on what's happened since.

The Back pp. 29-32

    Ten brief essays on various possibly amusing topics.

The three essays are also available as HTML separates (the headings
above are links if you're reading this on a blog) at
