Compensationfor the development applies to the original author of the Courseware, and notto the subsequent instructors who make use of the Courseware shell.Instructors who teach the course are expected to augment the course asappropriate, but this action does not constitute development as defined above,and incurs no further compensation for development. Faculty teaching on-linecourses will be compensated at the rate established by the University forinstruction. In exchange for the compensation relative to the development ofCourseware shells, the author understands that Lee University retains: aroyalty-free, non-exclusive license to use the Courseware shell materials foreducational purposes; the right to update, alter, and revise the original workfor educational purposes; and the right to assign others to teach using theCourseware shell. The University’s title shall include all rights provided byU.S. Copyright law. Such title is necessary to guarantee the University’s rightto control the method and manner in which its educational programs andcourses are offered to the public and to secure new revenues from which toreplenish and enhance University technology resources. Nevertheless,Authors retain the copyright to their texts and other original works ofauthorship (including items addressed in III.A.2) incorporated intoCourseware.5. Whenever deans, directors or administrators commission new works,copyright issues should be clarified and fixed in a written agreement prior tothe start of the project, according to the guidelines of this policy. In theabsence of such an agreement with respect to a commissioned work, the IPReview Board will determine application of this Policy thereto. In determiningthe ownership of any commissioned work not covered by a written agreement,the IP Review Board will consider: (a) at whose initiative the work was created(b) control over the content and final approval, and (c) any funding orextraordinary resources provided by the University.B. Authorship and Permissions1. Collaborators on a single work are joint Authors, as that term is defined underU.S. Copyright law. Because joint ownership of Copyrights creates complexmanagement problems, it is recommended that joint Authors haveagreements that define the rights and duties among them prior to beginningwork.2. All copyrighted works owned by Lee University shall prominently bear thelegend “© 20 Lee University. All rights reserved.”3. All individuals associated with the University are responsible for securingpermissions or licenses from the owners of Copyrights before reproducing,distributing, displaying or performing any works in which such individual doesnot own the Copyright, or creating derivative works based upon any suchwork. It should be assumed that all material displayed on the World WideWeb is copyrighted and not freely available for use unless permission isexpressly granted by the owner of the Copyright in such material, or it isclearly in the public domain. Whether a particular use constitutes “fair use”under U.S. Copyright law can be difficult to ascertain.4. Use of University logos or other trademarks requires permission of theUniversity. Requests for permission should be directed to the Office ofUniversity Relations.7 - 30 Academic Policies and Procedures
