<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:blue'>Hello! I just received the
following question, and thought you all might like to know the answer.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:blue'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Katie,
maybe I am misunderstanding but it seems that some of the Oregon libraries are
misunderstanding the copyright issue – basically to not compete with
items already sold by Highsmith/upstart? I think they are seeing it as all
clipart being copyrighted by highsmith and unable to be used by them when in
fact they can use the clipart for their everything that is not duplicating what
highsmith currently sales in their catalog? If I’m wrong on this, please
correct me. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Thanks!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
</div>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:blue'>Yes, you are correct! Both
the clip-art in the manual and by the artists can be used for products that do
not duplicate what Highsmith currently offers. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:blue'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:blue'>The clarification is around what is
considered a duplication of paper products. For example, many libraries
around the country have different reading goals/records, therefore the reading
records offered by Highsmith don’t work for them. In the past we
thought it was OK to use the clip-art to create our own reading record because
Highsmith didn’t offer a similar reading record. This year we
learned that since Highsmith offers <b><i><u>a</u></i></b> reading record we
can’t use the clip-art to create a different type of reading
record. We can still use the art on sign-up forms, events calendars, booklists,
event promotions/signs/brochures, and other materials not available to purchase
from Highsmith/Upstart.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
