    =======================================================

    Dave Hansen (Authors Alliance) and Michelle M. Wu are co-editing a book on U.S. copyright that explores how copyright has evolved over the centuries and in what types of ways authors, users and libraries are impacted by it. As part of the project, they are conducting surveys of each of these groups. The survey on ephemera seeks to understand how researchers are affected by copyright (if at all) when using materials that have not been formally published. 


    A standard disclosure page at the start of each survey provides more information for respondents. The survey(s) will run through December 9, 2024.


    Many thanks to J. Christine Park, Law Librarian in Residence at Gallagher Law Library (University of Washington School of Law) for leading the empirical team handling the survey design, implementation, and analysis. 

    If you need more background, let me know. Or if you're interested in seeing what other surveys we're conducting, you can see the list and quick description of each here. All survey links may be freely shared.

    Best,

    Michelle
