Dear All,
A question from a bit of a novice! We are at the early stage of developing our research repository and have not actually loaded any real material yet. The Library will be uploading material on behalf of our researchers and academics, although in the future we may have academics and researchers who will be happy to self-archive.
My question is:
Can we ask a depositor to sign a licence just on the first occasion that they send us material? That licence would then apply to everything else that they send us in the future. Does anyone currently do this with their own repository?
Or will we need to get a licence for each individual item?
I would be very interested to know what you are all doing and in your advice.
Many thanks for your help,
Best wishes,
Keith Nockels
