American University Washington College of Law will conduct implementation activities for the recently released Code of Best Practices in Fair Use for Open Educational Resources. The goal of the code is to create a community-based framework for evaluating fair use inclusions that aligns with the professional mission of educators and the predictable legal principles of fair use law. With the release of the code in February 2021, American University Washington College of Law began the core work to foster actual change, including uptake in discipline-specific communities and implementation support for institutions and networks. This project lays out a set of activities that are tailored to support librarians, authors, and others to engage with the code as a tool to understand their work.
