VRA Bulletin Vol. 52 No. 2 (2025): Can I Use That Image? Copyright, Fair Use, and Rights Management

The 2025 Fall/Winter issue of the VRA Bulletin (VRAB) is now available. The VRA Intellectual Property Rights Committee (IPRC) sponsored this special issue focusing on copyright, born out of a 2024 VRA Annual Conference session and the subsequent discussions and survey. The articles in this issue cover a range of topics, from a brief historical survey of copyright, to fair use and licensing, traditional knowledge rights management, and educational resources for all of us in the image management field.
