DANVERS, Mass.--(Business Wire)--

Get Up to Speed on Copyright in 10 Minutes or Less

CCC will turn the exhibit floor into an interactive classroom, delivering four
informative sessions in its booth, #1009. These short presentations are designed
to help bring conference attendees up to speed on all things copyright-from
copyright law basics to copyright and image use to the latest licensing
offerings from CCC. CCC will also air its new 6 ½ minute Copyright Basics video,
in which the animated star of the video, Jim the Librarian, walks viewers
through the essentials of the U.S. Copyright Act, fair use, public domain and
more (you can find Jim on Facebook by searching for jlibrarian@copyright.com.)

Hot Topics and Click University

Off the show floor, CCC is teaming up with the Software & Information Industry
Association (SIIA) to host a Hot Topic session on social media and its affect on
the work of corporate librarians. "Wikis, Tweets and Blogs, Oh My!" is scheduled
for Monday, June 15th from 1:30 PM -3:00 PM in room 145B of the convention
center.

CCC will also host "Understanding Copyright in a Web 2.0 Culture" as part of the
SLA`s Click University continuing education program. This program is recommended
for librarians and other information professionals tasked with promoting
learning and synergy in the workplace. Interested participants can register
