Copyright? Why would I need to worry about that? The challenge of providing copyright support for staff

Abstract

Presents an overview of the challenges of providing copyright training to staff at LSE. The institution does not employ a dedicated copyright officer, but instead employs a range of tactics to ensure academic, administrative and Library staff are made aware of copyright issues. Several training sessions are run throughout the year. LSE have also developed an online course and produce a range of online and printed guides to brief staff on copyright issues. Advice and queries are also dealt with by a number of individuals who have specialist knowledge in areas such as copyright and the internet and copying archival materials
