Krider Visual Resource and Learning Center
Multimedia policies
- The Krider Center maintains a digitized visual database for multimedia use along with computers and other equipment
for scanning and making presentations.
- Use of multimedia resources and systems is granted on a first-come, first-served basis. To insure availability, faculty
should make reservations well in advance of the time of intended use.
- Slides owned by the Krider Center are to be scanned only by Krider Center staff.
- Faculty may scan their own visual materials themselves, or lacking time or familiarity with scanning procedures may
submit requests for that material to be scanned by the Krider Center staff, however priority will be given to
faculty donating images to the Krider Center collection.
- Copyrighted material will only be scanned by Krider Staff when the copyright owner grants permission for the material
to be scanned and to be included in the Krider Center's visual database.
- Please submit all requests to scan material (whether owned by the Krider Center or the individual) well in advance
of the time of anticipated use.
- Normally, most scanned images will become part of the Krider Center digitized visual database.
Scanned material may be excluded from that database if is mutually deemed or of marginal benefit to others.
The Krider Center is not able to devote its resources to large amounts of "marginally beneficial" or "non-instructional use"
scanning. Therefore, faculty requesting such scanning may be asked, as a condition of being granted those requests,
to provide the Krider Center with supplementary or compensatory resources.
- Faculty may impose restrictions on the use of digitized images scanned from their personal slides or other visual materials upon
including them in the database.
Commercially produced slides in the Krider Center collection have copyright restrictions that generally do not permit
reproduction of any sort. Scanning of these slides will not be permitted unless it can be demonstrated that such scanning
is entirely consistent with the most current and widely-held interpretations of copyright laws and their "fair use" provisions.
