Indiana and Purdue Unversities have created the Copyright Management Center. Internet Legal Research Weekly describes the Center:
[I]t's designed to serve the community with the management of copyright issues arising in the creation of original works and in the use of existing copyrighted works for teaching, research, and service. A Copyright Quickguide is offered to help you learn basic copyright information quickly. There are also guides on Fair Use Issues, Permissions Information, and Copyright Ownership.It looks like a nice resource.
