Dear List
We are due to re-vamp our processes for providing alternative formats over the summer. As I am relatively new to the service myself I wonder if I can defer to your expertise on the following?
What is considered an "intermediary copy" under copyright? We create a structured Word document from a publisher pdf in order to create audio files (or DAISY). Is the Word document considered the intermediary copy and therefore is not supposed to be shared with user if providing them with an audio file or could you consider the Word file as part of the final provision if it is enhancing the end user's experience of the book?
I interpret this to be two copies and as such DAISY would be the preferred route?
Sorry I have been reading licences this afternoon and now my brains fried!
Any guidance much appreciated.
Best wishes,
John
