Conferences & Seminars
Is permission needed?
Because of the vastness of our University,
there are numerous conferences and seminars taking place all over campus
on a daily basis. Oftentimes, a presenter would like to hand out photocopies
of relevant articles and/or enhance presentations utilizing Powerpoint
or traditional overhead projections of copyrighted material. Unfortunately,
because many factors and variables come into play in determining whether
or not copyright permission is needed, such as size of audience, nature
and purpose of the conference or seminar, number of articles and amount
of material to be copied, and frequency of the conference or seminar,
it is impossible for us to develop generic guidelines to help you answer
your copyright questions. Rather, each item would have to be evaluated
using the fair use factors discussed in the copyright
laws and guidelines section of our site. Our office would be glad
to help you during this evaluation process and obtain permissions on
your behalf when needed.
Fees
If permission is deemed necessary for material
used in conferences and seminars, the Copyright Permissions Center charges
a fee of $5.00-$10.00 for every rightsholder contacted. This service fee, along
with any royalties charged by publishers, would be billed back to the
department requesting permission through a CUFS number.
