Notes

Purpose for the Motion

On behalf of: 
Source Committee
Note: 
The USG (and therefore GC) already has a Copyright Policy. The impetus for this motion is that faculty members are not aware of the Copyright Policy and the Fair Use Checklist. APC met with Susan Kerr (Chief Informational Officer), Jim Berger (Director of Center for Teaching and Learning), and Barbara Szyjko (Instructional Technology Staff Specialist) on November 1, 2019 to discuss adding a link to the D2L (Georgia View) splash page: gcsu.view.usg.edu
