Biological Sciences: Understanding copyright and your research

You own your own research right? Well it depends...

This session will explore the sometimes complicated world of copyright and what can happen when publishing work through formal routes such as journals or through more informal routes such as pre-print servers. The session will also introduce concepts such as third party copyright and rights retention, as well as how licensing tools such as Creative Commons can be used to not only help maximise the reach of research but also navigating reusing other people's work.

Postgraduates, researchers and other interested professional services staff (e.g. technicians) based in the School of Biological Sciences departments and institutions.

Number of sessions: 1

If you will require any help before or during the session, such as accessibility support, please email the Biological Sciences Libraries Team (sbslibraries@lib.cam.ac.uk) for further assistance.

Once per year.
