Copyright Clearance Center Announces Annual License for Academia
Copyright Clearance Center, Inc. (CCC; www.copyright.com) announced the launch of the Annual Copyright License for academic institutions, a single license that provides faculty and staff with preapproved permissions to use content in course management systems, paper and electronic course packs, electronic library reserves, research collaboration, and more. By preapproving the use of content, the Annual Copyright License is designed to save library staff valuable time and reduce the costs associated with tracking and managing high volumes of individual copyright permission requests.Developed in cooperation with several colleges and universities, including charter program member Middlebury College, the Annual Copyright License provides comprehensive, "check-and-go" permission to use content from books, scholarly journals, news and trade magazines, and newspapers. Nearly 200 publishers—including Springer, SAGE Publications, Nature Publishing, John Wiley & Sons, The New York Times, and Princeton University Press—have signed on to the new program, and more publishers are joining each week. The license covers single- and multi-campus institutions, including international campuses of U.S.-based colleges and universities.Source: Copyright Clearance Center, Inc.
