With apologies for cross posting.
Here in Reading we are discussing what training to offer staff and
research postgraduate students on copyright implications of the
increasing digitisation of theses - in the context of the BL Ethos
project and beyond.
We would be interested to know how others are approaching this both in
terms of the content of such training and the methods of delivery. So if
you are able to share your thoughts/practices with us we would be very
grateful and will of course post a summary to the list. Some questions
for you to consider:
1. Are you already offering additional training for students/staff?
2. If not are you considering doing so?
3. Is it or will it be compulsory?
4. How is it (will it be) delivered for students and for staff?
5. Is it linked to other skills training or courses?
6. What content do you (might you) include in training for staff and for
students?
7. Who is responsible for the training eg Library staff, Copyright
Officer, Exams Office, Institutional Repository Staff?
8. Any other comments/problems encountered/issues we have missed
