I responded yesterday to directly to Gillian but having seen Polly's message
this morning thought it might be helpful to reply to the list in general.
The mda's AdviceNet portal located at www.casportal.org.uk
<http://www.casportal.org.uk> is a rich source of information on copyright
resources. mda has been particularly active in this area and recently
produced a series of factsheets including Copyright Basics, Copyright for
Collections and Digital Copyright. To find these and other resources enter
'copyright' in the site search bar. There are currently 73 catalogued
resources here, many with links, including the British Copyright Council and
the Museum Copyright Group amongst others.

Subject: Re: Digitisation, copyright and letters
Can I add to Gillian Lonergan's request for information regarding
copyright
on letters and Iask for information on photographic copyright. What
are the
standard procedures (any obvious professional organisations to
contact) when
trying to establish an apparently unknown copyright?
Many thanks,
Polly Rossdale
