Ken Marr will teach you the basics that you need know about copyright and intellectual property (often called IP). This webinar will introduce the key concepts and issues that are most relevant to the creative and cultural sector. Using real world examples and case studies Ken will help make these often intimidating topics tangible and understandable.
What will I learn?

- How can I make the most of my archives online and still stay within the law? (e.g. audio files, pictures and other media)
- What do I need to know about if I display of works of art to the public?
- What do I need to think about when I’m collaborating on a project with another individual or organisation?
- Where can I get more (free / low cost) help and advice?
