Author’s Rights Explained in Two Minutes
A two-minute Author’s Rights Video gives scholars an overview of their rights and which ones are taken away when transferring copyright to publishers. It offers three steps to effective rights management:
- Scrutinize the publication agreement
- Negotiate with the publisher
- Retain the rights you need
The video has been created by the Association of Research Libraries. If you have questions about author agreements and how to retain rights to your scholarly work, contact the appropriate subject specialist.
