Copyright and Fanfiction: A Primer

I came across this and think it is worth sharing, because this can be a hot topic.  Jacqui Higgins-Dailey, who was a public librarian and is now a full-time residential faculty librarian at a community college, has written about fanfiction and copyright. Her post covers:

• Is fanfiction technically legal?
• What about Fair Use?
• What about Transformative Works?
• Why is there so much fanfiction if it’s illegal?
• Takeaways

She does a nice job summarizing what you need to know and cites her sources. So if you're interested in fanfiction and copyright, give it a read.
