Section 19 of the General Rules Concerning University Organization and Procedures sets forth the basic policy on copyrights and recordings, and provides for the University Committee on Copyrights and Recordings. This section is enclosed for reference as Attachment I . In conjunction with the Provost of the University, the Committee on Copyrights and Recordings prepared a statement of procedures for bringing proposals before it. This statement of procedures has been designed with particular reference to the submission of proposals which may result in copyrightable materials. However, the same channels are appropriate for submission of request for copyright of an already completed work or for a ruling on the ownership of, and rights to, the copyright on a work where a question has arisen concerning this.
Incomplete information can cause delays in the consideration of the matter.
An excerpt from Faculty Letter No. 177 appears as Attachment III . The University Committee on Copyrights and Recordings has been working with the President's Office to establish major policy revisions. Until these revisions are completed, this document and those publications referenced herein constitute the present University policy regarding copyrights and recordings.
