Date: Wednesday, August 29, 2018
All webinars are one hour in length and begin at 11 AM Pacific, noon Mountain, 1 PM Central, and 2 PM Eastern time.
This is the second session in a six-part series. View the other sessions in this series.
During this six-part webinar series, attendees will learn the fundamental structure of contracts, commonly used terms, and how to address indemnification clauses, constraints on use permissions, problems of legal jurisdiction, perpetual access rights, and some more recent developments such as the pursuit of text and data mining rights. Contributors will also explore some complex legal issues and other aspects of electronic resources management including how to maintain positive working relationships with vendors, track important changes in business models and technologies, and control costs. Above all, attendees should understand how licensing does not occur in a vacuum, but must be well grounded in a complex chain of information exchange within and beyond the library, all of which should be undertaken to support the library’s mission as understood and implemented by the library administration.
*****************
Description: This webinar focuses on managing the licenses that your institution has already negotiated and understanding how they impact various stakeholders within your library and institution.
Learning outcomes:
Participants will gain a greater understanding of the administrative aspect of managing licenses at their institution and how to interpret them and translate them to various library and institutional service points which are affected by them.
Who should attend?
The webinar is geared toward library staff who work with licenses as part of their position; however, all library staff members who have an interest in how licenses impact their library’s collection and service points will benefit from the information covered.
Presenter:
Monica Moore is an electronic resources librarian at the University of Notre Dame and has been working with licenses and general rights issues for five years. She earned her M.L.I.S. from Syracuse University in 2008.
