 For a creative writing class, Zoey submits a story based on the Harry Potter series. She acknowledges that she is using characters created by another, but she puts her own unique spin on the story. Later, Zoey wants to publish her story in the campus literary journal, but the student editor is hesitant. She likes the story, but she is worried. Is Zoey committing copyright infringement, or is her story covered by fair use? In this situation, concerns that Zoey and her editor are considering are based on the fact that information has value. The editor recognizes that because of the financial and social value, there are both legal and ethical guidelines for how information sources and creative works can be used and shared. Zoey, who has been raised at a time when technology makes it easy to share and remix information and works created by others, struggles to understand why what she is doing might be problematic. When deciding whether or not the story should be published, both Zoey and her editor must carefully consider complicated issues related to copyright, fair use, and parity, and determine the potential consequences. In recognizing that information has value, they also must recognize that this means that they have certain rights and responsibilities when it comes to accessing, sharing, and using information.
