IP oversight

[Richard Nollan <rnollan@xxxxxxxxx>]

Recently one of our faculty members asked me a question that I would 
like to forward to this group. Professors sometimes take liberties with 
regard to the copyright law and the digital items that they use in 
their classes. My feeling is that faculty members in general are 
expected to know, or to find out how the law relates to there work. I 
know that universities and campuses may have people who can offer 
advice to faculty members about individual cases, but I would like to 
know if there are any instances where someone on campus actively (or 
proactively) looks for questionable online practices to correct?

Thanks in advance.
