Overview What do you need in a digital license and why? Licensing content has rapidly become a key component of the academic publishing environment. This course will outline the development of electronic licensing and how it relates to primary product sales, secondary sales and copyright.
Program
- Types of licenses and agreements
- Model licenses
- National Licenses
- Drawing up appropriate licenses
- 'Must-have' clauses and why you need them
- Applicable law
- Usage statistics, perpetual access, inter-library loan and authentication provisions
- Licensing relationships with customers
Learning objectives By the end of the course delegates will be able to: Analyze and assess types of agreements from signed contracts to end user click-through models; draft complex licenses with skill and confidence; resolve individual queries and problems (via group/tutor discussion).
Who should attend Delegates should have a grasp of the copyright and legal framework (such as provided by the ALPSP Introduction to Copyright course). This course is aimed primarily at delegates working with electronic licenses and products. It will therefore be suitable across contracts, rights & licensing, sales & marketing and library liaison functions.
