Dear LIS-Forum Members, Greetings from the NCSI-NET Foundation. This is a gentle reminder that the 2026 T.B. Rajashekar Memorial Lecture will be held on Wednesday, 19 August 2026, at 4:00 PM (IST*)* via Microsoft Teams. Lecture Details Speaker: Ana Enriquez Head, Scholarly Communications and Copyright Penn State University Libraries, USA Title: *Conflating Copyright and Ethics* Abstract In resources about copyright law for lay audiences, it is common to conflate acting ethically with following copyright law. Rather than encouraging ethical behaviour, this trope shuts down the audience's ethical reasoning. Nor does this trope encourage learning about copyright law. Instead, it leads to several misunderstandings: it encourages people to think that all copyright wrongs are equivalent; it overlooks the variety of approaches to copyright, such as those of other countries or historical periods; and it conceals the flaws in copyright law. The solution is not to excise ethical reasoning from discussions of copyright law. The solution is to disentangle the two topics and pay adequate attention to both. About the Speaker Ana Enriquez is the Copyright Officer and Head of the Office of Scholarly Communications and Copyright at the Penn State University Libraries. As both a lawyer and a librarian, she has long advocated for improvements to the copyright system so that all may benefit from the advancement of knowledge. Earlier this year, Ana spent an academic term at the National Law School of India University, Bengaluru, as a Fulbright-Nehru Scholar.
