  • 2013 Syndicate Directory
    2013 Syndicate Directory NEW FEATURES CUSTOM SERVICES EDITORIAL COMICS POLITICAL CARTOONS What’s New in 2013 by Norman Feuti Meet Gil. He’s a bit of an underdog. He’s a little on the chubby side. He doesn’t have the newest toys or live in a fancy house.

Gil is a realistic and funny look at life through the eyes of a young boy growing up under circumstances that are familiar to millions of American families. And cartoonist Norm Feuti expertly crafts Gil’s world in a way that gives us all a good chuckle.

These groups play a key role in moving our libraries forward and accomplishing the goals set forth in our strategic plan. I want to thank each of you who volunteered for your willingness to serve the Libraries in this additional capacity. Know that the work carried out by each of these groups and committees is vital and appreciated. Here are the committee appointments for 2015: https://library.osu.edu/document- registry/docs/397. The coming year marks the fourth year of the new committee structure established by the Executive Committee for University Libraries. The Executive Committee has reviewed each committee and working group, revised committee charges if needed and added goals for 2015. The Committee Chair and Member Responsibilities document was prepared to outline expectations and responsibilities for both committee chairs and members. I encourage you to review it before you begin your work. I look forward to the good work of our committees as we move forward on the five strategic planning themes: services, collections, library as an intellectual crossroads, infrastructure, and innovative leadership.

  • One Fine Sunday in the Funny Pages” Exhibit
    John Read is the creator and curator of the “One Fine Sunday in the Funny Pages” exhibit. A freelance cartoonist, John also teaches cartooning to children and is the publisher and editor of Stay Tooned! Magazine, considered the trade journal of the craft. The Comic Mode The comic strip provides a colorful and humorous respite from the serious and often tragic news that precedes it. There are many reasons for reading the “funny pages”; from the basic need to be entertained, to the desire to escape for a moment into what seems a playful combination of a joke and a sequence of images that illustrate the nonsense and play that generates it. Yet, what really constitutes the “comic” in a comic strip? Are they simply funny, as in Blondie, Garfield or Hagar the Horrible? Or do we sense underlying tones of irony, satire, political and social commentary as evidenced in Doonesbury, Non Sequitur, and Between Friends? How are we to understand the double entendre, the sting of wit or the twist of the absurd that infuses so many contemporary comic strips? It would seem that as in dreams, there are many levels to the comic mode. On the first take, the superficial or manifest appeal generates a smile or laughter. But as with many dreams and good jokes, there is the second take, a latent need to establish or defy meaning as embedded within the structure of the images themselves. The paradox or playfulness of the comic strip partially lies in discovering the truth in the nonsensical aspects of day-to-day living.

  • Comments of the Association of Medical Illustrators
    Comments of the Association of Medical Illustrators Library of Congress U.S. Copyright Office [Docket No. 2015-01] Copyright Protection for Certain Visual Works The Association of Medical Illustrators (AMI) is the sole professional organization for the profession. All medical illustrators rely on the protections of copyright to protect the authenticity and integrity of their work. All rely on the divisibility of exclusive rights to earn their living. All have experienced substantial economic loss despite their utmost proactive actions to protect their rights. AMI is grateful that the Copyright Office is undertaking a much needed inquiry into the impact of current copyright law on visual artists. RESPONSES TO QUESTIONS SET FORTH IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER NOTICE The Most Significant Challenges Related to Monetizing and/or Licensing Graphic Artwork and Illustrations The challenges facing AMI members are the same as those for all graphic artists, particularly professional illustrators. However, the market for medical publications is smaller than for mass market publications with the result that purchase prices and subscriptions are especially high in comparison with the publishing industry in general. Further, the business environment for medical illustration has experienced two especially significant changes in recent years that create a much more hostile environment for licensing and monetization than in the past. These are: (1) the consolidation of the Scientific, Technical and Medical (STM) publishing industry with the result that a handful of giant multinational publishing companies control the conditions of licensing for medical illustration, and (2) the disproportionately extensive and rapid migration from print distribution to electronic distribution, often through site licenses offered by publishers and content aggregators to physicians, hospitals, clinics, universities and medical research institutions.
