Don't know how I missed Critical Commons, a fair-use advocacy group and
Website, until today. Now, I feel I must spread the word!
They're fighting the good fight, specifically:
Critical Commons is a non-profit advocacy coalition that supports the use of
> media for scholarship, reasearch and teaching, providing resources,
> information and tools for scholars, students, educators and creators.
> Critical Commons provides information about current copyright law and its
> alternatives in order to facilitate the writing and dissemination of best
> practices and fair use guidelines for scholarly and creative communities.
> Critical Commons also functions as a showcase for innovative forms of
> electronic scholarship and creative production that are transformative,
> culturally enriching and both legally and ethically defensible.
> *At the heart of Critical Commons is an online tool for viewing, tagging,
> sharing, annotating and curating media within the guidelines established by
> a given community.* Our goal is to build open, informed communities around
> media-based teaching, learning and creativity, both inside and outside of
> formal educational environments.
