There have been major legislative changes recently to copyright laws that will dramatically affect how digital resources are managed and used, and therefore almost certainly impact upon the roles, responsibilities and advice given by Library and Information Professionals on a daily basis.

Course highlights:
• An overview of the latest legislative developments including Orphan Works European Directive, Extension of copyright/performers’ rights duration, Amendments to the Public Sector Information Directive, Digital Economy Act, and Hargreaves Review of IP
• What’s on the horizon. 


Please note: The emphasis will be on UK Copyright Law, although some international issues will be covered.


Why you should attend:

This course will provide a detailed overview of the latest legislative developments, including relevant case law, other related rights and more detailed discussion about some key topical issues to help participants develop the necessary skills in order for them become more expert in copyright and ultimately to provide the necessary copyright advice and support across their organisation in light of fundamental legislative changes.

On completing the course you will be able to:
• Understand the legal requirements of copyright and related rights
• Understand the proposed changes to the copyright legislation and what these could mean for your organization and your specific role
• Consider your next steps and in particular strategic, policy and practice-related measures associated with legislative developments
• Appreciate how you can best support your colleagues regarding copyright issues they may have.
