Tributes have been pouring in for Guy from LACA members. All have commented on how kind, courteous, helpful and supportive he was. We are so very grateful to have known him, and had him as part of our group.

Breaking twitter silence to share the very sad news of the death of a dear and much-loved @CILIPinfo colleague, Guy Daines. As warm, intelligent and generous a colleague and one of the most passionate champions of library ethics and public libraries as I have ever known. #RIP Guy

Very excited to see this open source primer on the relationship between #copyright law and libraries in various global jurisdictions. It covers lots of ground from the fundamentals of copyright, to user generated content, to AI and TDM.

Super excited to see the new IFLA publication on Navigating Copyright for Libraries now available with a chapter from me and @cbowiemorrison on Copyright Education - it's open access so what's not to love: degruyter.com/document/doi/1
