| Throughout this site, I reference several external websites which have helpful information and explanations about copyright law. Below I've listed these useful pages - in no particular order - as a handy reference guide of information I found to be reliable. To make this page easier to use I've left any comments I made about these websites within the individual chapters where the links are first provided.. This list is not an exhaustive list of helpful sites. In fact, the very nature of the collaborative internet means new information is popping up every day. As you search for information and apply it to your situation, I suggest looking to works by these authors or to sources they recommend. |

| I've purposely left off MusicUnited.org because I think their website is not accurate and should be avoided. But, since I reference them, I've included them here. Similarly, here are the links to The Educational CyberPlayground and University of Maryland University College. I should state, however, that the last two sites are probably honest efforts to help educators. The only problem I have with their information is that it does not reflect what the law states. |
