Andrew Braid
Implementing the new copyright legislation
ANDREW BRAID is head of Licensing and Copyright
Compliance at the British
Library.
He joined the former National Lending Library
for Science and Technology at Boston Spa in 1968. He has
held a variety of posts including management of the literature
stores and reprographic unit, the conservation unit, stock
relocation, building planning and service development. For
the past 5 years he has been involved in negotiating licences
with the CLA for the provision of copyright cleared copies
and with publishers for use of electronic journals in the
Library’s document supply services and reading rooms. He
is currently overseeing a programme of changes to ensure
that all the Library’s services conform the with EU copyright
directive.
Synopsis
Although we have not yet seen the new legislation
we have a fair idea of what will be in it. This workshop
will highlight the areas that are likely to cause problems
such as the commercial / non- commercial distinction and
the changes to fair dealing and library privilege. There
will also be advice on how to make sure services are compliant
after the legislation change. New licensing schemes such
as the sticker scheme are being developed and these will
be explained in more detail. However, there are some areas
that will need further action and discussion and these will
also be highlighted. At the end of the workshop the delegates
should have a better understanding of the impact of the
legislation and have some idea of how to make their services
copyright compliant.
