Workshop to focus on Common Core and copyright

Librarians, library staff and library advocates are invited to register for “3C Workshop: Common Core and Copyright,” from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., on May 13, at the Port-Sky Café, Penn State Altoona. The program is organized by the Pennsylvania Library Association’s Juniata-Conemaugh Chapter.

Ellysa Stern-Cahoy, education librarian and assistant director of the Pennsylvania Center for the Book, and Brandy Karl, University Libraries copyright officer and affiliate law library faculty member, will conduct the workshop.

Stern-Cahoy will focus on issues surrounding the Common Core and the ways in which Pennsylvania has adapted the standards, while Karl will address questions such as, “Can I copy materials for a patron?” and “Do I need to post a copyright notice?”

To register, go to http://www.palibraries.org/events/event_details.asp?id=626664&group=112439. The registration deadline is May 1. Public librarians can earn two continuing education credits for their participation.

The workshop costs $30 for PaLA members and $50 for nonmembers and includes morning refreshments and lunch. For more information, contact Lori Lysiak, 814-949-5252 or lal29@psu.edu.
