Do you have questions about virtual reference legal issues?

I'm working on a webcast on virtual reference that Infopeople is sponsoring on June 16th for California librarians. Note: Anyone else can watch the archives soon thereafter.

Do you have any questions, insights, comments that could help me put together a relevant presentation? I'm working on this now - so please send your brilliant thoughts to me if you have any.

The webcast will look at common concerns such as:

What privacy concerns are raised? What can your library do to minimize privacy concerns?

What issues are raised when a librarian sends a scanned document via email or through a live chat session?

Does it make a legal difference whether you scan an article yourself and send it via email versus pushing it from a database via the chat session?

Who owns the copyright to the patron interviews? Can they be used in promotions?

Protect yourself and your library by getting a fix on the legal framework affecting digital reference and pushed content through this latest installment in Infopeople's ongoing series of webcasts on library legal issues.

How and where can I get information that was shared at the June 16th, 2005 webcast regarding Digital Reference and Legal Issues? I am particularly interested in hearing responses to the question, "What issues are raised when a librarian sends a scanned document via email or through a live chat session?"

Thanks,
