Resources from February 7’s Faculty Lunch Session
Now available online - Information and resources from the February 7 faculty lunch session “‘Don’t I Own My Own Work?’: Negotiating to Keep Your Copyright” that alert faculty about their rights as authors and suggest strategies for retaining copyright during the publication process. An overview of UC policy on copyright ownership, examples of authors’ agreements, and strategies for negotiating them are outlined in a PowerPoint presentation. A handout in PDF format with URLs of useful Web sites is also available.
The session is part of the yearlong series “Intellectual Property in the Digital Age: The Rights Stuff for Teaching and Publishing.” The final session in the series, “‘What Are My Rights?’: Software, Patents, and Open Source,” will be on Thursday, April 10. For more information and to register online, go to the Faculty and the Collections Web site.
