Hey Iowa 4-Hers! Want to share your amazing projects but unsure about copyright? You're not alone! Navigating copyright laws can feel tricky, but understanding the basics will help you showcase your creativity confidently.
This guide focuses on 4-H copyright usage specifically within Iowa. It's designed to help you understand when you need permission to use someone else's work (like images, music, or videos) in your projects and presentations.

If that's not possible, explore resources like Creative Commons for royalty-free content or contact the copyright holder for permission.
Understanding these principles not only keeps you legally compliant but also reinforces the importance of respecting intellectual property. So, go forth, create, and share your amazing 4-H Iowa work with confidence and integrity!
