Hello all, In follow up to the discussion regarding copyright advocacy at our last meeting, I'm attaching the letter (in French and English) authored by CFLA-FCAB and CARL-ABRC. Annette DeFaveri circulated it on the BCLA listserv on Dec 1, 2020 on behalf of Rebecca Raven, Executive Director CFLA-FCAB, with the following note: "The Copyright Committee of CFLA-FCAB has been busy advocating with our federal government to modernize and improve access to government information. A recent letter regarding Crown Copyright shared with Cabinet Ministers and MPs (attached) has had a positive response and we are encouraged by the number of follow up conversations we had scheduled as a result of the communique. We wanted to give you a heads up that next steps for the Committee include communication with provincial governments to inform and gain support. Member associations will be copied on the relevant letters for their jurisdictions." I'll keep you posted on future correspondence with CPSLD about this. Thanks, Lindsay Lindsay Tripp Copyright Librarian Langara Library 604.323.5290 100 West 49th Avenue, Vancouver, BC, V5Y 2Z6 Unceded Musqueam Territory [Langara Logo]<https://langara.ca/> ________________________________ Please consider the environment before printing.
