***Last places available on EBLIDA licensing workshop, The Hague, 12
April 2002***
There's more than negotiating the price when it comes to licenses for
electronic material.
Do the conditions of access and use in the license correspond to your
needs?
What happens to your license agreement if the publisher is taken over by
another company?
What is your liability if the conditions of use are abused by a library
user?
In the case of a dispute with the publisher, in which country do you go
to court?
This one-day workshop will guide you through the issues and will provide
strategies on how
to negotiate effectively with publishers.
Topics will include:
-a clause-by-clause analysis of existing license agreements;
-the nature of the contract process and how it relates to copyright
law;
-the importance of having a licensing checklist;
-tips for negotiating strategies.
The workshop is intended for librarians and other staff engaged in
reviewing and negotiating licenses for electronic resources with
information providers on behalf of the library, the institution as a
whole or a consortium. The tutor is Emanuella Giavarra, an experienced
European copyright and contract lawyer, who specialises in licenses for
electronic material.
