Where next for resource licensing?
Joint JIBS User Group and Eduserv event Wednesday 16 June, Khalili Lecture
Theatre, School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London,
10.30am - 4pm
Do you know what your staff and students are allowed to do with the
journals, databases or e-books your library provides for them?
Are you are an e-resources manager, already grappling with the thorny issues
surrounding licence agreements?
This joint JIBS and Eduserv event will explore the issues around licences
including :-
. the expanding customer base and distributed sites of most
libraries
. the issues raised by cross institution arrangements,
collaboration, affiliation and franchising
. our users' expectations in a digital environment
. varying authentication systems and the management data they
provide
. developments in machine-readable licences
Come along to this event to hear from some of the key players, and to put
forward and discuss your problems and ideas.
