Chapter 6. Universal Design and Copyright Considerations

John J. Burke, Beth E. Tumbleson

Abstract


Chapter 6 of Library Technology Reports (vol. 52, no. 2) Learning Management Systems: Tools for Embedded Librarianship

This chapter introduces universal design as an important value in LMS librarianship. In addition to following instructional design principles and standards for accessibility and responsive design, the embedded librarian needs to consider copyright law, Fair Use, the TEACH Act, and Creative Commons licensing. In these ways, librarians plan for and protect access for students and faculty.
