[Betsy Alexander]

The University of Maryland College of Information Studies is offering an online course in "Virtual Reference Legal Issues" from May 9-20, 2005.  



This interactive, web-based course is geared toward all librarians and will feature readings, message board discussions with peers, feedback from the instructor (Mary Minow, MLS, JD), and a framework for analyzing VR issues.  



You will learn how to: analyze copyright issues in the context of the VR service; find up-to-date resources on legal issues; determine which areas of law impact VR and when to contact a lawyer.  



You should plan to devote approximately five (5) hours to the course over the two-week period.  Upon successful completion, .5 CEU will be awarded.  The registration deadline for "VR Legal Issues" is April 25.
