This year’s conference theme is Digital Trek: To boldly explore copyright in teaching and learning.

Hosted by the Ball State University Libraries, the hands-on conference features outstanding nationally recognized intellectual property experts who will speak on intellectual property and copyright issues that have a direct impact on teaching and learning. The conference has time built in to allow attendees to ask questions specific to their institutions.

The conference will be especially helpful for educators, media specialists, librarians, IT specialists, administrators and all who are interested in how to use someone else’s intellectual property correctly.
