<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Tahoma><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Tahoma'>I would like to see delegates to CSLP actively lobby for
changes to this rule. There seems to be less validity in
participating in a cooperative that disallows use of the summer reading program
clip art for customized reading logs, final certificates, etc. While I
understand that Highsmith would like to be sole source for all things reading
club, their pricing doesn't make it possible for many, many libraries to order
their products. While I value things that many libraries would never be
able to afford - a large vinyl banner in full color, a variety of t-shirts
sporting the summer theme, full color bookmarks - I question the wisdom of CSLP
negotiating a contract that won't allow a small library to print off reading
logs or certificates on their photocopier using that summer's clip art.
One of the main reasons for joining this cooperative was the ability to
obtain high quality art work that would have been unaffordable for <st1:State
w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Oregon</st1:place></st1:State> to obtain on its
own. However, the strength of branding is negated when libraries are not
allowed to use that artwork to create their summer reading materials.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Tahoma><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Tahoma'>I know from when I was the CSLP rep that Highsmith enjoys a
really wonderful return on the investment it makes of time and money to produce
these materials. I also know that CSLP benefits with a percentage
kickback from Highsmith that can be used to reinvest in continuing this venture
from year to year. I don't think that either entity would find
participation in future years unaffordable if this rule was changed.
Perhaps total income would go down but making this program work for libraries
with smaller reading club budgets should be an important aspect as well.
Finally, if this is untenable to Highsmith, we all know of other vendors
who might be interested in collaborating with CSLP, even with the change in clip
art rules. While I'm not advocating for moving from Highsmith as our
vendor, I do think that the rules for use of clip art are in drastic need of
change.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

the <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Oregon</st1:place></st1:State>
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. </span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 color=blue face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt;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. </span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 color=blue face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt;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><span style='font-weight:bold;font-style:
italic'>a</span></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.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
