In this digital environment copyright has become a little more complicated and there are a lot more things to consider. In today's environment it is up to the individual to decide if what they are using/doing is fair use and not a copyright infringement. If someone asks you "Is it OK to......?" then it is important to help them work through the thinking process to make their own decision. Would Granting them permission make you liable? Do you really have all of the information needed about someone's project or intention to make this call? It is more helpful to guide them through their own thinking process so they can make good decision about copyright in the future. This is true for students too!!!
FAIR USE FACTORS ala fair use evaluator In determining whether the use made of a work in any particular case is a fair use there are four factors outlined in section 107 of the copyright law which are always considered. They are:
(1) the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes;
(2) the nature of the copyrighted work;
(3) the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; and
(4) the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work.
QUESTIONS ON COPYRIGHT
Question 1. If you already own the album, LP, VHS and reformat it, is it a copyright violation to copy it onto another format?
Answer 1: Here are the steps to go through to answer this:
First consider the copyright law about this issue. The copyright law is very specific about this. Here is an excerpt from the law:
"For purposes of this subsection, a format shall be considered obsolete if the machine or device necessary to render perceptible a work stored in that format is no longer manufactured or is no longer reasonably available in the commercial marketplace."
In other words you cannot reformat something as long as a machine or device can be purchased that can play the item. Since this is specifically stated in the law, it would seem that this would be a violation of copyright.
Ask, is what I want to do fair use?
To determine fair use, think through the 4 factors.
The first 3 factors cannot be determined here because full information about purpose, nature, or amount (though it appears it would be the full item) has not been disclosed.
When considering factor 4, this would have a negative impact on the market since I can still purchase the machine to play the item. This is not fair use because of the 4th factor above that must be considered when determining this.
Conclusion: You will have to purchase the new format as long as you can purchase a record player, VHS machine, ... to play the item. This is in Section 108 of the copyright law. http://www.copyright.gov/title17/92chap1.html#108
Question 2: If you need to make a back-up for future use that is, I think, permissible. Does #4 preclude ripping a CD to put on your iPod?
In everything I have read and can find about Ripping a CD to your IPod, this is allowed "for personal use only." Library or school items do not fit into this category. This could be one of those grey areas that must be decided through a critical thinking process using the 4 factors above to determine if what you are doing is within the guidelines of the law.

What modern practice looks like also has a lot to do with what it doesn’t look like.
Here’s a list of things I believe teacher librarians should unlearn:
1. That the little things really matter to those we serve and teach. (For instance, whether or not we decide to shelve Mc and Mac together.)
2. That you should annually close a library for inventory.
3. That Boolean logic is the best search strategy since sliced bread.
4. That Wikipedia is bad, or less-than-good, in almost every context.
5. That databases are the only online sources with value and credibility.
6. That having a web presence, no–that having a really good and really useful web presence–is optional.
7. That someone else is exclusively or ultimately responsible for learning relating to information and communication and search technologies.
8. That the price initially quoted is the price you have to pay.
9. That vendors’ have the final say.
10. That issues relating to Fair Use are generally going to be answered with the word no.
11. That no really means no or will continue to mean no when it comes to issues relating to access to the information and communication tools of today and intellectual freedom.
12. That intellectual freedom is a phrase connected to books alone.
13. That libraries should be quiet.
14. That libraries should be tidy.
15. That a library’s effectiveness and impact should be measured by the number of books it circulates.
16. That your stakeholders automatically will know what you contribute to your school or your community’s culture.
17. That a library is merely a place to get stuff.
18. That your collection should be just-in-case rather than just-in-time.
19. That someone else is responsible for your professional development.
20. That ubiquity won’t change your practice profoundly.
21. That your library is bounded by its walls.
22. That your library is open from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.
