Copyright and Online Images
Clearing rightsEnsuring/securing permission to digitise and make available online
Protecting rightsEnsuring that rights and investments in online images are not infringed or abused by others
Hosted at the Institute for Learning and Research Technology, University of Bristol.
Clearing Rights – Basics
Consider at beginning of project Your responsibility Owning material owning copyright Digitisation is a form of copying Putting online is a form of “publication”,
communication or distribution Unlikely to fall within “fair dealing” May be several layers of copyright May be other rights involved
Hosted at the Institute for Learning and Research Technology, University of Bristol.
Clearing Rights - Steps
Determine copyright status Decide on scope of permissions required Create a contract Set up a due diligence file Locate rights-holder(s) Negotiate the details Do what you say you’ll do Make an effort to protect online works
from infringement by others
Hosted at the Institute for Learning and Research Technology, University of Bristol.
“To copy or not to copy?”
What if copyright status unclear or owner unknown/untraceable?
Best advice is don’t copy Others go ahead with a promise to
remove and desist Such practise is risky and TASI
recommends seeking legal advice before proceeding
Hosted at the Institute for Learning and Research Technology, University of Bristol.

Hosted at the Institute for Learning and Research Technology, University of Bristol.

guarantee Up to you to pursue infringements Balance risks and costs v benefits Consider the worst case scenario –
is it really so bad?
