Copyright – it touches on almost all areas of practice in libraries and archives, yet many do not feel confident in dealing with it on a day to day basis. Recognising the need, the Australian Libraries and Archives Copyright Coalition (ALACC) continues to provide copyright training to members and non-members nationwide.

This training aims to arm librarians and archivists with the knowledge and skills to tackle copyright in their day to day roles within collecting institutions.

Content

Two sessions will be run between 10 am and 4 pm.

Two sessions will be held which are aimed at attendees with different levels of knowledge and experience, and the two are designed to work as discrete sessions or as a single full-day copyright primer.

Sessions:

Copyright Essentials (morning) – intended for those who want to learn or brush up on their copyright basics.

Copyright Extended (afternoon) – looks more in-depth at key copyright issues and assumes either a base knowledge of copyright or attendance at the morning session.

The day is designed so that you can attend any of the sessions individually or combine them for a fuller program. They will be held in the same location, with a break for lunch in between.

Please register for all sessions you plan to attend - places fill up fast. No catering is provided however there are a number of cafes in walking distance.

Cost

Both sessions are free for ALACC member organisations and their employees – so if you or your institution are a member of ALIA, NSLA, CAUL, AGLIN, CAARA, ASLA, ASA or other member organisations, the only cost is your time. They are also open to non-members; however a price is charged. Members of the ALACC's sister organisation, the Australian Digital Alliance, receive a discount on this price.

Full day program

Copyright Essentials – 10 am–12:30 pm

How long does copyright last? What are the library and archive exceptions? How do you obtain a licence? What is section 200AB and how can I rely on it?

12:30 pm – Lunch break

Copyright Extended – 1:30 pm–4:00 pm

1:30 pm – In-depth and practical copyright advice

The afternoon session provides an in-depth look into copyright issues relevant to libraries and archives including practical advice around:
