Objective
To produce best practice procedures related to rights, royalties and
permissions prior to the development of the national host service and the
institutional toolkit
This Work Package will comprise three strands:
5a: IPR & Digitisation (retrospective and on-going)
- Investigate best practice for obtaining digitisation permissions, if
required at all
- Determine the necessary legal agreements required between thesis
authors and the BL
- Develop model licences (if required), pragmatic procedures and
supporting documentation
5b: Author IPR recommendations
- Investigate the role of author royalties in the online arena taking
into account the aspiration of a free-at-point-of-use service
- Determine the necessary legal agreements required between authors,
institutions and the BL
5c: End User IPR recommendations
- Determine recommended practical legal agreements between end-users,
institutions and the BL
- Advise the national host development team how to implement
recommendations into a live service
The group will provide a report summarising all the issues and
recommendations (to be fed into the system) and will contribute to the
advocacy activities of Work Package 8. External
legal expertise will be called upon, as recommended by the JISC legal
service.
