We are in the process of helping the institution look at its copyright policies, particularly as it relates to use of Library materials. But it got me to thinking about all the ways the church needs to be paying attention to copyright issues as well. If your church shows a home video only movie at a retreat, or you copy a cartoon into your church newsletter without permission, your church may be in violation of copyright laws.
Copyright is a maddeningly confusing but the Presbyterian Church has a very good website to help you look at ways to make sure you are in compliance with current understandings of the law. You can check it out here.
