UCOP has submitted a proposed revision of the presidential policy on copyright and fair use for systemwide review and employee comment. You can access the revised policy at http://libraries.universityofcalifornia.edu/sscp/resources.
The 1986 Policy on the Reproduction of Copyrighted Materials for Teaching and Research has been totally revamped, and renamed the University of California Policy on Copyright and Fair Use.
Note that, in conjunction with the revised policy, a revamped and updated UC Copyright website (http://copyright.universityofcalifornia.edu) was launched in mid-February.

Clarification of copyright and fair use (especially of "fair use") limitations and allowances has been long overdue. I look forward to participating in this process, assuming that the process will be carried forward in a manner that will permit dialog as to what specific cases and usages will be regarded as permissible under the "banners" of scholarly, non-commercial, and directed-to-teaching categories.
