Archiving the Unspeakable

The Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia for less than four years. In their brief but devastating rule, approximately 1.7 million people died from untreated disease, starvation, and execution. For many, the regime’s brutality has come to be symbolized by a series of black-and-white mug shots taken at the notorious Tuol Sleng prison, where thousands of “enemies of the state” were tortured before being sent to the Killing Fields. Based on a soon-to-be published book, this talk will trace the social life of these photographs through the lens of archival studies, arguing that these images are records first and foremost and that archival institutions are playing a key role in preserving and providing context to these records.

All About Copyright

This workshop will begin with the history and evolution of Copyright Law, from the Statute of Anne to the TEACH act and will examine current copyright considerations for the upcoming myCSUNtablet initiative. We’ll discuss in detail the types of materials covered by Copyright, the “Bundle of Rights,” Copyright term limits, the Public Domain, and Orphan works. We’ll review the statutory exceptions to copyright law, particularly those pertinent to the library enterprise. A particular focus will be lent to the Fair Use exception, with exercises on applying the “Four Factor Test” when making Fair Use determinations.
