Anyone using the CCC's new Academic Annual Copyright License?

[Eleanor Cook <cookei@appstate.edu>]

Dear colleagues,

We are looking at the possibility of using this on campus, in 
light of the Georgia State lawsuit and other issues related to 
work flows and staffing for e-reserves, plus the obvious and 
potential relationship between the use of a library e-reserve 
system and the use of class software for access to copyrighted 
material. If your campus has started using this I would like to 
hear what you think about it.  You can reply off-list, if you 
prefer, and I can summarize for the group.

One of the stipulations is that you have to conduct a sample of 
your e-reserves, 20% of your activity, I believe. Is this doable? 
I am told it is, but I would like to hear from someone who has 
been through it.

Also - if you are participating, does the library pay the entire 
license or is your Academic Affairs unit or other unit on campus 
pitching in? The 1st two years are a reasonable price but the 3rd 
year it gets pricey.

Thanks,
