Abstract
The author doubts the effectiveness of the 1976 Copyright Act.
The author conducted a survey of 144 institutions, of which 81
(57%) responded. The survey included questions as the collection
size and their copying practice, had there been a threat with
lawsuit, questions concerning their copyright practices and the
attitude of the institutions on this issue. Their answers
stiffens the author on his doubt. His conclusion: the 1976 act
adequately adresses neither the concerns nor the needs of visual
resources curators. The reproductions for use in history of art
instruction is a unique function, requiring a set of agreed upon
guidelines for interpretation.
