Programme
Features
Copyright and licensing are important
strategic issues for information professionals, the effective
management of which can reduce the risks of copyright
infringements and create more efficient working practices.
This
workshop will develop a toolkit for dealing with infringements
of copyright , managing risk and developing suitable policies
and procedures. Participants will consider staff and user
expectations, planning requirements, restrictions and
how to create an environment where copyright is handled
appropriately. The afternoon will build upon the areas
covered in the morning by facilitating the development
of an institutional copyright policy covering both the
internal management of rights as well as copyright and
licensing compliance for the use of third party materials
held by the institution. The session will be concluded
with an examination of how copyright policies can be successfully
implemented and enforced.
Using
a lively presentation style, the trainer will encourage
active participation in a relaxed and friendly learning
environment.
