Course Outline:
This important one-day seminar will bring attendees up to date on recent
developments in UK copyright law, explaining the implications for all
who use information resources in their day to day work, and what they
need to tell colleagues. The seminar will give delegates the confidence
to deal with the practical issues which they might encounter, and to
answer questions from colleagues on topics as wide ranging as orphan
works, licences (including Creative Commons licences) and the
significance of proposed legislative changes (including Hargreaves
Review, Digital Economy Act and EU legislation) and recent key legal
cases. The seminar will be highly interactive, with a quiz, discussions
on scenarios, and two Q&A sessions. Attendees are asked to submit
questions they would like answering in advance.
Who should attend:
This course is aimed at all those who undertake library and information
work that involves the use of copyright materials and who are keen to
learn about recent developments in copyright law and practice.
Knowledge of copyright principles and law is assumed.
