THE PUBLIC INTEREST IN COPYRIGHT: PAST, PRESENT, FUTURE

Date: Saturday, May 4, 1996 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. The Clark Kerr Campus, University of California, Berkeley

Join publishers, scholars, educators and librarians, legal practitioners, historians, and creators of copyrightable works to help develop a vision of the public interest in copyright in a digital age. Conference participants will analyze copyright in historical, present and future contexts to determine how the public interest can become an integral part of the copyright debate. One of the major thrusts will be to emphasize the value of a utilitarian balance of private and public goods as the more productive area for discussion and resolution of copyright issues.
