CLEARANCE BECAUSE THEY CANNOT LOCATE THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS!!
THESE MATERIALS MAY BE OLD, OR OBSCURE OR UNPUBLISHED.
WHAT THEY ALL HAVE IN COMMON IS THAT RIGHTS IN THEM ARE DIFFICULT OR
IMPOSSIBLE TO TRACE.
AS A RESULT, THE PUBLIC HAS LESS ACCESS TO THE BEST INFORMATION.
Come to our working group meeting to help solve this copyright
clearance problem. We will discuss
§ Frustrations with copyright clearance requirements;
