"I enjoyed the course and would recommend it to anyone new to permissions."

Taylor & Francis delegate



Don't rely on trial and error! Make sure your permissions always count by learning:

 

  • the basics of UK and US copyright law
  • the difference between publishing rights and copyright
  • how to process permissions and how much to charge
  • the implications of new copying methods
  • when to refuse permissions
  • how to chase payment.

 

If you ever have to grant permissions - for books or journals - this course offers essential advice, practical experience and useful feedback. It will alert you to the rights of the publisher and the author, and will foster good working practice in the granting of permissions. You'll also be able to compare what you do with what other publishers do, particularly in controversial areas such as fees and fair dealing.
