Abstract
The Library, archive, cultural and educational sectors are likely to face many more years of copyright uncertainty and disconnect between copyright laws and norms. Legislative changes may narrow what has been a widening gap between the legal and the technologically possible, but evolving copyright norms are increasingly setting the boundaries of what is possible and prudent at a time when black letter law is struggling to keep pace with change.

Abstract
In December 2009, the Australian Copyright Act was amended to introduce a new exception for cultural institutions: Section 200AB. This Section adopts a far more open-ended drafting style than the existing libraries and archives provisions, and was introduced with the intention of capturing some of the benefits of a flexible exception. However, the operation of Section 200AB has been a matter of debate, because of uncertainties in its application. The aim of this paper is to explore how Section 200AB can become a meaningful part of copyright management. The paper includes discussions of fieldwork with US institutions about fair-use practice, which may provide guidance to Australian counterparts.

Abstract
Almost a year after its introduction, many questions remain about the scope and interpretation of section 200AB of the Copyright Act 1968: the new ‘flexible’ exception for educational and cultural institutions. Unlike existing exceptions, section 200AB is drafted using a more open-ended approach, and may therefore apply to a range of activities undertaken for administrative, preservation and access purposes. But how open-ended will the exception be in practice? This presentation discusses this question, including with reference to preliminary results of a PhD project considering cultural institution law and practice in the United States and Canada, which may help identify important lessons for Australia.

Abstract
Intellectual Property training is seen to be the domain of the legal profession. This is entirely appropriate if you believe that the only people who invent or create are scientists in laboratories supported by multinationals who take out patents to protect the developments and commercialise the outputs. This paper explores the options open to Technical and Further Education (TAFE) Libraries in relation to copyright education. Utilising the Information Literacy Guidelines places a TAFE library in a unique position to provide their institution’s copyright training across a wide range of subjects in a balanced compliant manner.
