Preface But there also are many situations where users do not need to ask for permission because the use is permitted under the Copyright Act.

The 2012 edition updates every chapter from the first edition of The Librarian's Copyright Companion, and we add a new chapter on the library as a publisher. You will find information on recent developments such as Creative Commons licenses and the use of digital video (e.g., YouTube) in the classroom. And we continue to believe there is a need to counter the self-serving voices of publishers and copyright owners, and those who do their bidding.
