of music appearing at pp. 70-71 of the House report, as amended in the
statement appearing at p. H 10875 of the Congressional Record of
September 22, 1976. The conferees also endorse the statement concerning
the meaning of the word "teacher" in the guidelines for books and
periodicals, and the application of fair use in the case of use of
television programs within the confines of a nonprofit educational
institution for the deaf and hearing impaired, both of which appear on
p. H 10875 of the Congressional Record of September 22, 1976.

4. Excerpts From Congressional Debates

==================================================================
The following excerpts are reprinted from the Congressional Record
of September 22, 1976, including statements by Mr. Kastenmeier
(Chairman of the House Judiciary Subcommittee responsible for the
bill) on the floor of the House of Representatives.

MR. KASTENMElER.

Mr. Chairman, before concluding my remarks I would like to discuss
several questions which have been raised concerning the meaning of
several provisions of S. 22 as reported by the House Judiciary
Committee and of statements in the committee's report, No. 94-1476.

Another question involves the reference to "teacher" in the "Agreement
on Guidelines for Classroom Copying in Not-for-Profit Educational
Institutions" reproduced at pages 68-70 of the committee's report No.
94-1476 in connection with section 107. It has been pointed out that,
in planning his or her teaching on a day-to-day basis in a variety of
educational situations, an individual teacher will commonly consult with
instructional specialists on the staff of the school, such as reading
specialists, curriculum specialists, audiovisual directors, guidance
counselors, and the like. As long as the copying meets all of the other
criteria laid out in the guidelines, including the requirements for
spontaneity and the prohibition against the copying being directed by
higher authority, the committee regards the concept of "teacher" as
broad enough to include instructional specialists working in
consultation with actual instructors.

Also in consultation with section 107, the committee's attention has
been directed to the unique educational needs and problems of the
approximately 50,000 deaf and hearing-impaired students
