Course Overview

This course provides an introduction to copyright and how it is used.
Delegates will be helped to understand the legal background, and to make
sense of their own organisation’s contracts and licences. They will learn
how copyright is managed in practice in a publishing company, and how to
avoid legal pitfalls such as libel and plagiarism. The primary focus of
the course will be on journals publishing, although book publishing will
be covered if appropriate to the delegates.

*	Agreements with customers – licences and document delivery 
*	New developments and hot topics 

Who should attend?

The course is designed for those with 1-3 years’ publishing experience in
editorial, production or permissions functions. It is also suitable for
more senior people wanting an overview of the current position.
