Several reports were considered at the second meeting of the National Commission on New Technological Uses of Copyrighted Works (CONTU). A proposed study to collect data on the present status and extent of photocopying (sponsored by the National Commission on Libraries and Information Science (NCLIS) ) was presented and its eventual usefulness to CONTU was discussed. A resolution from NCLIS asking CONTU to request that Congress take only interim action on photocopying was found inappropriate for action by CONTU. A representative from the Institute for Computer Sciences and Technology of the National Bureau of Standards presented objectives and areas of study for a project on the interaction of law, economics, and technology in the use of copyrighted materials. Of special interest was the ownership of material translated into machine or some other code for later retrieval. Another study, done at Indiana University, dealt with library photocopying trends in the academic community and the costs and fees involved. The ad hoc group on photocopying discussed the hazy area between fair use copying and systematic reproduction of copyrighted materials. Future directions and meetings were considered. (LS)
