Multimedia Deposits: Complications and Considerations with Intellectual Property Rights
The Welsh Repository Network has released Multimedia Deposits: Complications and Considerations with Intellectual Property Rights .
Here's an excerpt:
The purpose of this learning object is to explore the Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) that may be within multimedia items, and to highlight some of the complications and considerations that need to be taken into account before a deposit of this type can be made into a repository.
Following two short introductions to multimedia and to copyright, questions are then posed on some of the details of copyright within varying item types. Feedback on, and an explanation to, the question's answers are given. Also included is a short exercise looking at what needs to be taken into consideration before allowing a performance video item into a repository. The learning object concludes with a look at Performers' Rights and highlights what repository staff should be aware of in regard to this IPR within potential repository deposits.
Also available as a Zip file.
