Copyright Decision Map

Copyright Decision Map
(University of Minnesota Libraries)
This diagram from the University of Minnesota's Copyright Website steps through the process of evaluating how to determine whether a resource is protected by copyright and, if so, how to comply with the law to use it. Although some of the information is specific to the U of Minn, like licensing, the general principles are generally applicable. This is an excellent illustration of how to think through a complex process.
