COPYRIGHT
Many students think that copyrighting material is something that other people do. When
someone writes a book or a song, they put a copyright symbol on it. Yet there is more to
copyrighting a work. A copyright is something that affects you every time you step into the
classroom, the library, or the school newspaper office.
A copyright is something that you own, too. Each time you express a new idea in a
paper, an art project, or a multimedia presentation, you are copyrighting that work. It
happens automatically, without a government stamp or a fee. For more information
and recommended resources visit the library’s website:
The Digital Copyright Committee makes information about copyrights available to
students, faculty, staff and administrators. You are welcome to contact the committee
by email at

crisis, or a decision you may be contemplating, such as withdrawal from school or a course.
