SUMMARY:Copyright-A-Thon: Political Buttons Collection [Virtual]
DESCRIPTION:\n\nREGISTER FOR THIS EVENT\n\nAhead of state and local 
 elections this November\, join HKS and Harvard Libraries for a civically 
 engaged copyright-a-thon on the Political Buttons at HKS Collection!\n\nThe 
 Political Buttons at HKS Collection features over 5\,000 buttons 
 representing U.S. political history from 1904 through today. At this 
 copyright-a-thon\, we'll be investigating the copyright status associated 
 with the buttons of candidates who have run for all levels of political 
 office. Identifying their copyright status will enable us to make the 
 buttons available on many more platforms beyond Harvard\, increasing the 
 collection’s reach and research potential. You’ll learn about copyright 
 law\, practice one method for checking a work’s copyright status\, and 
 explore the many political campaigns run over the past century – just in 
 time for you to get out to your city's polls next month!\n\nWhile this 
 event will take place too close to Election Day for participants to 
 register to vote at the event itself\, all registrants will receive advance 
 information via email about how to register to vote in the municipal 
 elections taking place on November 4 in Cambridge\, Boston\, and 
 Somerville.\n\nAll are welcome to join this event regardless of Harvard 
 affiliation. Individuals with disabilities are encouraged to participate 
 and can email library_research@hks.harvard.edu to request an 
 accommodation.\n\nAlso join our Research-A-Thon on the Political Buttons 
 Collection on October 17.
