This interactive roundtable presented the findings of the Dance Heritage Coalition's (DHC) “fair use” project, whose outcomes will make dance-related materials at libraries, museums, and archives more readily accessible to researchers, students, and the public. Strict copyright observance affects the breadth of materials available for scholarly study, public programming, and classroom use. Thus, copyrights adversely skew the dialogue in historical and cultural studies of dance. The panelists from the archival and scholarly fields will illustrate the copyright problem and the “fair use” solution by offering several case scenarios (including curatorial problems in the DHC traveling exhibition, Dance Treasures). The DHC's initiative is modeled on the documentary filmmakers'project on “fair use.” Through individual interviews and focus groups of librarians/archivists, technical staff who work with librarians, and scholars/educators, the DHC developed a set of scenarios where copyrights conflict with the programs and missions of dance-related cultural institutions. Findings and agreements have been collected and will be shared in a published “Statement of Best Practices of Fair Use.” Q&A followed.
