Have you scanned extracts from books or journals and made them available to students on Moodle? If so, then you need to report the copies you have made.
The Copyright Licensing Agency (CLA) Comprehensive HE Licence permits us to scan extracts from printed books, journals and magazines. Every year the University is required to compile a record of bibliographic and course-related details for every digital copy prepared and distributed under licence.
Every department that has scanned an extract from a printed book, journal or magazine for a course-based collection must complete a Digital Copy Record Form – Comprehensive Digital Licence.
Please read the instructions here before completing the form and include all digital material that was distributed from 1 June 2012 to 31 May 2013.
Fully completed forms should be returned by email to the CLA Licence Co-ordinator, david.sherren@port.ac.uk, no later than Monday 3 June 2013.
The Library will collate all the returns and submit a single form to the CLA before the 14 June deadline.
Staff are reminded that the permission to prepare and distribute digital copies via a course collection is restricted to ‘designated persons’ and that all such copies are deposited in a course repository within the University’s VLE. Full guidelines are provided on the CLA’s website (www.cla.co.uk/licences/
