Abstract:

This session will develop topics such as: what is a license, what is a shrinkwrap license and is it binding, how do licenses or contracts relate to national copyright laws, what is a good negotiating stance, what to look for in a license (key issues), and where to look for more information. The session will be outlined by a series of overheads that can help to guide the library professional who needs to work through these matters during the course of negotiating for electronic information content.

The article contains the text of the transparencies shown during the presentation.
