This agreement places the interview into the public domain.

A Stanford University Library web site has said that, “If a book, song, movie, or artwork is in the public domain, then it is not protected by intellectual property laws (copyright, trademark, or patent laws)—which means it’s free ... to use without permission.” (http://fairuse.stanford.edu/ Copyright_and_Fair_Use_Overview/chapter8/)

Because the interview will be in the public domain, the Brooklyn College Listening Project can:
● use it in scholarly or popular publications, or  
● place it on the internet in whole or in part, or  
● quote it in scholarly and popular publications without prior notice to you.

Because the interview will be in the public domain, members of the general public will also have access to this interview, and can use it, again, without prior notification to you.
