[CASL-L] Copyright Question

[CAITLIN CARBONELL]

If you keep the physical copies, and the collection is closed (only the music department can access, they cannot download it, only listen) that's acceptable.

Hello everyone!

Happy Friday and the almost start to a long weekend...

Question for all of you copyright experts - we have a LARGE collection of music CDs that are stored in the LMC.  No one checks them out.  Ever.  I have asked our music department if they want them.  The question they asked was could they be digitized and then accessed whenever needed from their computers.

So - can they?  If we own them, do we have the right to digitize and share them to our music department for school use?

Thanks for any help you can provide!
