• Monopoly created by law to give authors and
creators a set of exclusive rights over the
things they create.
• Copyright exists as soon as creative
expression is fixed in tangible form
• The creator or author may be asked to
transfer to a publisher, relinquishing their
own rights over the material

education
7. The Rights
7
• Owner reserves rights to
– Reproduce
– Prepare derivative works (e.g. editions, translations,
sequels)
– Distribute copies

8. How can you tell if something is in the
public domain?

23. Copyright extension
23
Copyright (and patents) were intended to give creators exclusive rights to their work
for a length of time long enough to incentivise the creation of new work.

Finally in the public domain as of
Sep 2015!
Copyright “owned” by
Warner/Chapel, raking in $2b
per year. Charge was $1,500-
5000 per use.

Example of copyright being used

wrong way.

31. Things to note about CC licenses
31
• They are irrevocable - What is released under a
CC license stays under a CC license
• You can re-release a work under a new license,
but previous copies will retain the license they
were shared under
• You can only CC license works that you have the
rights to (which is important for collab!)

• Applies to faculty and staff
• Is affected, in the case of grants, by the grantor’s licensing
guidance
• In the case of “works for hire”, sometimes the institution
holds copyright.
