Request to Participate in Copyright and Audiovisual Content in Institutional Repository Survey

[Kylie Shannon]

If you currently accept student audiovisual files in your institutional repository, please consider responding to this survey. This survey is part of a research project that aims to provide a snapshot of how U.S. institutions are currently providing access to and addressing copyright issues related to institutional audio and visual content created by students as part of their research output at their institutions. We plan to present the results of this survey and research in a webinar and to share the anonymous results with respondents. We estimate that the survey will take between 15–25 minutes.
