In addition to my developing obsession with finding author voices relating to developments in copyright law, I have been searching every resource I can find to figure out interesting ways of communicating to students and faculty on campus about copyright.  The most hilarious resource might be the most obvious:  the Copyright Office’s FAQ.  My favorite questions:

  1. How do I protect my sighting of Elvis?
  2. Can I get a star named after me and claim copyright to it?

The questions are perfect examples of how the vast reach of copyright is often misinterpreted to be an unlimited reach.
