Copyright Issues Got You Down?

Terra Gullings, The University of Texas at Tyler

Abstract

The use and creating of research are integral parts of faculty’s teaching and scholarship, but navigating the ins and outs of copyright issues, the allowances and exclusions, can be overwhelming. During this workshop, participants will hear about what UT Tyler’s Scholarly Communications working group has developed for faculty, including information relating to author rights, copyright, fair use, open access, creating access to faculty scholarship through Scholar Works at UT Tyler, and the use of open textbooks and other free course materials.
