ARL Public Policy Briefing (February 2026)
Fair Use/Fair Dealing Week Edition!
For Fair Use/Fair Dealing Week, ARL teamed up with the Re:Create Coalition to host a congressional briefing on fair use and AI. Read more about the unique problems the Copyright Labeling and Ethical AI Reporting (CLEAR Act) Act would present for libraries and archives.
In Canada, Bill C-15 has been amended to reinstate the protections for free literature for the blind and reduced postage rates for library materials in the Canada Post Corporations Act, thanks to advocacy by CARL and partner organizations. For Fair Dealing Week, CARL hosted a virtual discussion on “User Rights in the Age of Generative AI.” (ARL’s Advocacy and Public Policy Committee (APPC) will also host a discussion on this topic at the ARL Spring Meeting in April.)
