Hi All,
This is the LAST CALL for bookings on the following Aslib event. Please
reply directly to Harry Drummond to make your booking.
 

ASLIB MIDLANDS BRANCH

GETTING TO GRIPS WITH CONTRACTS & LICENCES - 19th March 2004

This course will be of value to anyone who is involved with the purchase of
electronic information. Contracts are complex legal documents, and a
licence enables an organisation to use an information resource within
certain agreements, such as for a certain time or on a particular site.
Agreements only cover specified usage, so it is vital to understand the
terms of an agreement before signing it. 

Programme:   

2.00 Start - Harry Drummond: Welcome and introductions

2.05 - Olivia Freeman: Contracts and licences for e-resources - made simple

2.40 - Vicky Gardiner: View from the Coalface - a practitioner case study  
  
3.20 - Break for coffee

3.35 - Workshops 

4.15 - Finish (approx) 

Olivia Freeman's session will help people to understand the mystique and
negotiate the terms and conditions that they sign up to.  She will be
talking about the actual licence agreements and give definitions of the
terminology and the things that people should look out for. She will also
indicate some of the areas where they might want to negotiate to get things
to suit their organisations.

Vicky Gardiner will then give a practitioners viewpoint by going through
her companys process of procurement from start to finish, with a focus on
the Battle of the Forms. This will include examples of forms used for
different scenarios, and will highlight terms that may be essential if the
contract is to proceed. She will also present examples of vendors terms
and conditions that could raise conflicts with the buyers required terms
in areas such as contract termination and indemnity/limited liability clauses.

After the break, our two speakers will run a workshop to explore some of
the issues raised in their sessions.  For more details about our speakers,
see overleaf.

Date and Time:   Friday 19th March 2004, 2.00 - 4.15 p.m. 

Venue:                  Aston University Library, Birmingham.  

Session Fee:            £45  (£35 for Aslib members). 

Booking Contact:        Harry Drummond, Harrison Learning Centre,
