UPFRONT - This month's article kicks off from June's FOCUS article on copyright ,and addresses the issue of digital rights management technologies, which tends not to have areas like fair use built in or allow for classroom exemptions. Instead, essentially a contract is built up around copyright law. FOCUS authors, Chris Ashley and Glenda Morgan, UW System Administration, encourage us to familiarize ourselves with this issue and to become involved in the implications of how this is set up and how it works. They also encourage us to, "have a seat at the table as the technology evolves and the discussion regarding its use ensues." (Rosemary Lehman)
