Abstract
Communicating with university communities about the many details in library license agreements can be a challenge, but it is necessary in order for the community to benefit from the rights negotiated. We are undertaking a project to analyze University of Saskatchewan (USask) library license agreements with journal publishers in order to promote figure reuse allowances that are included in some of the agreements. We are first focusing on CRKN agreements, as the model license includes an “Academic Research and Teaching” clause permitting authorized users to make use of portions of licensed materials in “research and publications for personal, scholarly, educational, or professional use”. This session will report on our census of USask library licenses to date and our initial plans to communicate with the USask campus community on these rights afforded to them in the licenses.
