Kudzu-Ops Mailing List: Webinar: "Not For The Faint Of Heart: Sleeper Clauses in E-Resource Licenses"

[John Burger (jburger]

ASERL Friends:

Please join us for "Not For The Faint Of Heart: Sleeper Clauses in E-Resource 
Licenses," a webinar led by Peggy Hoon, Director of Copyright Policy and 
Education at Louisiana State University Libraries.  

DESCRIPTION:  E-resources licenses – contracts, in fact – are powerful legal 
documents with the potential to protect you as much as the vendor. There are no 
throwaway clauses or words. Every single one is there for a reason, whether you 
understand it or not. Pay attention to these ‘sleeper clauses,' those seemingly 
mundane lines that look like just boilerplate language. Especially consider 
those which are not there. Understand the real-world benefits of ‘good’ sleeper 
clauses. They matter.  After years of encountering e-resource licenses, model 
licenses, and guidelines, what’s left to say about e-resource licensing? Plug 
in some standardized language or locally required clauses and you’re all set. 
Good enough? Maybe, maybe not.
