Digital Archive Agreements

["Jeanne Boyle" <jeboyle@rci.rutgers.edu>]

We are beginning development work on a multi-institutional digital image
archive.  The archive may be housed at one institution, but materials it
contains will be donated by creators from several universities.  Should we
develop license agreements with the creators that delineate our respective
rights and obligations?  Does anyone have any experience developing such
license agreements?  What elements should be included?
