From the American Libraries Association (ALA) DMCA Section 1201 Anti-Circumvention Rule site: “On May 9, the U.S. Copyright Office concluded a round of hearings in Washington, D.C. pursuant to its rulemaking, under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (DMCA), to determine potential exemptions to the Section 1201 prohibition on circumvention of technological measures that control access to copyrighted works. The five major U.S. library associations were represented at three of the Washington hearings by their outside counsel, Jonathan Band, of Morrison & Foerster, who testified in support of several exemptions that the libraries have requested through the written comments submitted to the Copyright Office.”
