Understanding Copyright and Publication Agreements: Safeguard your Research

In the publishing world, transferring copyright is often a necessary step. Recent partnerships between scholarly publishers and technology companies emphasize the importance of understanding your publishing agreements. Publishing agreements impact how your work is utilized: it may be used to train AI models, or there may be restrictions on sharing your research with colleagues, students, and the public.

This one-hour workshop will provide you with strategies for managing your copyright. You will learn how to carefully evaluate publication agreements, negotiate your rights, and select publishers whose policies meet your requirements. Join us to understand how you can control the use and dissemination of your scholarship.
