Librarians in Training: Copyright at the Enquiry Desk New
If questions at the Enquiry Desk such as “How much of this can I copy?”, “Can I scan this book on someone else’s behalf?” and “Can I use this image in my teaching presentation / coursework / published article?” sound familiar, this is the course for you!
This session aims to provide you with a framework for analysing copyright enquiries, considering:
- Who owns the item, and does this make a difference?
- What is the copy to be used for?
- What are the specific exceptions to copyright you should be aware of?
- Where can you seek additional information on copyright issues?
There will be an opportunity to submit examples of copyright enquiries you receive in advance of the course or you can bring them along on the day.
- You must be a staff member of one of the Cambridge Libraries (College, FDL, Affiliated, Institution or UL) to attend this session.
- For further information please see our eligibility criteria
- Describe the principles of copyright
- Recognise specific exceptions to copyright and be aware of how these apply to libraries
- Identify sources of further information, and places where in-depth enquiries could be forwarded to
