Course Overview

What do you need in a digital licence 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.
Delegates will be given the tools to analyse, develop and assess types of
agreements from signed contracts to end user click-through models and have
an opportunity for a case study.

Course Focus

o Types of licences and agreements
o Model licences
o National Licences
o Drawing up appropriate licences
o "Must-have" clauses and why you need them
o Applicable law
o Usage statistics, perpetual access, inter-library loan and
  authentication provisions
o Licensing relationships with customers

Who should attend?

Delegates should have a grasp of copyright and legal framework (such as
provided by Introduction to Copyright level 1).  This course is intended
to provide detailed understanding for people working with electronic
licences and products.  It will therefore be suitable across contracts,
rights & licensing, sales & marketing and library liaison functions.
