The Strategic Content Alliance Opportunities and Challenges: Public Sector Organisations Vast range of organisations Different governance structures Different funding arrangements Using different business models to support core activities Varying approaches to access Range of staff and “non staff” www.jisc.ac.uk/contentalliance 24 November 2018

The Strategic Content Alliance Shared IPR Issues: The Law Aim to create a balanced framework However, very few exceptions for users of great benefit Does not address issue of orphan works Uncertainty regarding legislation in force Web 2.0 engagement and associated issues not covered Ultimately, law restricts flow of content www.jisc.ac.uk/contentalliance 24 November 2018

The Strategic Content Alliance Opportunities and Challenges: The Content Heterogeneity of content Range of rights Different rights holders: many rights holders unknown “orphans” Content used for multi-purposes, by multiple stakeholders Increasing role of the user LACK OF STANDARIZATION, HARMONISATION AND UNKNOWN SCALE www.jisc.ac.uk/contentalliance www.jisc.ac.uk/contentalliance 24 November 2018 24 November 2018 | Slide 7 7
