Carl Malamud(Re-)Defining the Public Domain (2007)

University of California at Berkeley
School of Information

Distinguished Lecture Series
(Re-)Defining the Public Domain
Wednesday, October 17, 2007, 4:00pm-6:00pm

While much of the focus on intellectual property goes to battles over copyright or patents, we should not forget that a large proportion of such material is not property at all. The public domain is available for all to use. Of particular interest for the public domain is the U.S. government, all of whose work is available without restriction for all of us to use.

In this lecture, Carl Malamud explains the principles of the public domain with particular emphasis on the works of government. He will discuss how government often backs away from the clear principle of no property interests in order to maintain control, and how citizens can change that attitude through concrete actions. Malamud will use his own experience in forcing changes in government policy with numerous agencies to illustrate these general principles.
