Potential legal issues (whether appropriate for this list or not): 1. contracts, whether collections-related or otherwise (this might also include union contracts in some libraries) 2. human resources 3. liability 4. intellectual property 5. ADA compliance 6. certain facilities issues I'm sure others can think of more. -- Aline Soules, Associate University Librarian California State University, East Bay Hayward, CA 94542-3052 tel. 510-885-4596 e-mail: aline.soules@csueastbay.edu Ann Okerson wrote:
Dear Readers: Conversations about some future projects about legal issues give rise to this question: what are some areas of library business where you find yourself professionally needing to consult your institution's legal staff? I'd like to gather as complete a list as possible with a view to identifying some areas where collaboration could make things easier. This list, liblicense-l, arose in part as a way of helping librarians do a better job of reviewing and negotiating contracts for licensed electronic resources -- and thus implicitly needing less advice and support from others in the university community. So what, currently, are the issues that send you to talk to the lawyers or get you a visit from the lawyers asking to know more of some project you're working on? The list need not be limited to licensing; a short example or description of each item on your list would be welcome. Thank you, Ann Okerson/Yale Library ann.okerson@yale.edu
