The Center for Intellectual Property (CIP) at the University of 
Maryland University College is excited to announce the launch of 
a new blog portal addressing the cultural, political and legal 
context of copyright issues:

(c)ollectanea! http://chaucer.umuc.edu/blogcip/collectanea/
<http://chaucer.umuc.edu/blogcip/collectanea/>

The new (c)ollectanea blog will serve as an online discussion 
platform for the current and future Center for Intellectual 
Property scholars. Today, join one of the leading copyright 
scholars in the country, GEORGIA HARPER as she provides insight 
and leads discussions with guest bloggers on issues relating to 
copyright generally, with a specific focus on issues facing the 
education and library communities.  Georgia K. Harper serves as 
the CIP 2006-2008 Intellectual Property Virtual Scholar and the 
Scholarly Communications Advisor for the University of Texas at 
Austin Libraries. Previously, Ms. Harper specialized in copyright 
law and created the well known and widely used online 
publication, The Copyright Crash Course, for the University of 
Texas System

CIP is one of the leading online educational centers providing 
training, and solutions on copyright issues affecting the higher 
education community. This new blog, (c)ollectanea, furthers the 
Center's mission to provide timely copyright resources for 
educators.  Although the blog will address the needs of the 
education and library communities, all are welcome to engage in 
the discussion and contribute.

(c)ollectanea, collected perspectives on copyright.
