Intellectual property shifts. It is time for us to stop being
the copyright heavy. We can no longer afford to be seen as old fuddy-duddy bad

How does the statement "copyright counselor" resonant with you? Does it makes you think of?
If we are truly information professionals, we need not only to keep up, but also

"This space is for teacher-librarians to share their lesson plans and otherwise collaborate with each other. This space has been set up to follow the chapter headings from "Information Literacy for Life-Long Learning," the K-12 Library Scope and Sequence developed by the teacher-librarians of the Pittsburgh Public Schools (PA). (Please note that we begin here with Chapter 3, as chapters 1 & 2 do not require lesson plans.)"
