This chapter discusses the use of websites in various library settings, with a special emphasis on the noncommercial or nonprofit library,
such as a local public library, school, college, or university library, or those
of other philanthropic organizations. While the legal problems involving
library web spaces are many, the purpose here is to introduce the issues of
linking, posting, or framing in a web space that in turn can raise issues of
trespass, trademark, copyright, and defamation. Each area is dealt with in
turn, stressing how the application of recent case law may impact the
practices of organizations such as libraries in their use of information
available on the World Wide Web. |

Abstract: This chapter discusses the use of websites in various library settings, with a special emphasis on the noncommercial or nonprofit library,
such as a local public library, school, college, or university library, or those
of other philanthropic organizations. While the legal problems involving
library web spaces are many, the purpose here is to introduce the issues of
linking, posting, or framing in a web space that in turn can raise issues of
trespass, trademark, copyright, and defamation. Each area is dealt with in
turn, stressing how the application of recent case law may impact the
practices of organizations such as libraries in their use of information
available on the World Wide Web.
