The
Discovery Licensing Clinic is a free event which is designed for 15 delegates to consider practical responses to the Discovery open licensing principles (http://discovery.ac.uk/businesscase/principles/).
It will offer an opportunity to demystify licensing options, to consider their differing purposes, and to discuss the range of tactics that institutions might adopt in scoping metadata releases and making the associated licensing decisions.
Who should attend Managers and decision makers in libraries, archives and museums who are responsible for collections and discovery services or interested in establishing the foundations for future service developments.
Approach Working round the table, the Clinic will undertake a step-by-step analysis, hopefully enabling attendees to come away with a feasible action plan.
Delegates are encouraged to bring any materials for discussion or guidance, which can be covered in open sessions or in one-to-one dialogue with the experts present:
Francis Davey Barrister
Naomi Korn - Copyright Consultant
Paul Miller - Cloud of Data
