This item has been posted in the general forum but perhaps this is a better venue, I can only hope!
I am a graphic designer of thirty years but am currently studying Interaction Design and Information Architecture at the University of Baltimore.
As part of my studies in Information Culture, I'm (attempting) surveying graphics professionals working in the United States how they exercise their creative rights under current copyright laws (1998).
The questionnaire consists of merely twelve questions and will only be available for responses until 6 December 2006. I request no identifiable information and the survey company (www.surveymonkey.com (http://www.surveymonkey.com/)) does not track respondents.
I would greatly appreciate additional participation. I've had only 32 responses to date, hardly representative. Much has been said on this subject by academics and media moguls but it seems no one is asking those of us who actually do the creating. Well someone is asking now.
You can access the survey through my Information Culture webpage on the University of Baltimore webserver by selecting “Research Survey Questionnaire”.

Thanks to those of you who can participate and those who showed interest but reside out of the country!
