Fair Use Network

The Brennan Center for Justice at New York University
School of Law has created a Web site on fair use. Called
The Fair Use Network, the site says it attempts to alleviate
the "mass of confusion for artists, scholars, journalists,
bloggers, and everyone else who contributes to
culture and political debate." The site guides people on
what to do if they get a letter from a copyright owner
demanding that they cease and desist from making use of
the owner's work. The site also explains
how much people can borrow, quote or copy from another's
work.
