Students and researchers need access to more content than ever before. However, the demise of the big deals and the rise of new purchasing models have added complexity to licensing and legal frameworks. The iTunes model has shown that most users prefer an easy purchase/access method to piracy, and advances in computing power are using smart rules-based systems to replace lawyers. Learn how to get the most out of your licensed content and how to provide simplified access for coursepacks and library reserves. Learn how to reduce your legal liability through license integration with your LMS. Let’s get the lawyers out of the picture, so that professors and students can access content quickly and efficiently.

I manage copyright issues for the Stanford University Libraries, including our annual copyright reminder to all students and faculty. I also supervise our facilities department, so I wear a lot of hats. When I'm not at work (and occasionally even when I am), I'm a birder. I'm looking forward to exploring the avifauna of Buffalo.

21. Product Concept: Rights & License Manager
• A rights advisory and license management tool that
provides an instant, clear answer to the question: “What
am I allowed to do with this content?”
• Would centralize rights from an institution’s license
agreements and surface the best possible right to the
end user
• Two main components
– Rights Advisor
– Agreement Manager
30. Market Research Methodology
• Conducted on-campus focus groups in 2007 and 2012
• Cross-campus representation: librarians, faculty, CMS/IT,
bookstore/reprographics, legal/compliance
• Asked participants for feedback on RLM product concept
as well as challenges obtaining copyright permissions

31. Market Research Findings
• The RLM and ERM systems
– Does this already
– “Don’t make me reload my data again”
– Superior user interface
– “Librarians only” tool
• Ambiguity and fair use
• Preferred by smaller institutions
• Privacy concerns
• Substantial integration requirements
• Perceived value
33. Questions For You"
• Are you using an ERM to manage license terms?!
• How do you (or do you) manage the “back and white” versus
the “gray”?!
• Would faculty and staff use a tool that “replaced lawyers”?!
• Do you feel you have enough resource capacity (time,
knowledge, experience) to handle copyright education and
management for campus?!
• How do you (or do you) factor fair use into automated tools? !
