Copyright Clearance Center (CCC)

I'm looking forward to joining this great panel on AI and society publishing!

Can #FAIRprinciples established in the #researchdata bring valuable inputs to the overall #standards community? to ensure FAIR adoption, its crucial that standards for each aspect of FAIR are in fact "standardised" across institutions and standardisation initiatives, to promote collaboration and their effective usage. Consensus is necessary in #standardisation landscape. A flash talk from David Schott Copyright Clearance Center (CCC) during the SES-Standards #SES25 Conference.

In today’s digital and research-driven world, visual aids such as figures, tables, charts, and illustrations play a crucial role in presenting complex information effectively. However, when incorporating copyrighted visuals into your work—whether for academic, professional, or creative purposes—copyright law and the permissions that might be required to reuse those elements need to be taken into consideration. Copyright law protects not only textual content but also images, meaning that unauthorized use of tables, figures, charts, or illustrations could pose infringement risks. While data itself is not subject to copyright, its presentation, arrangement, and design are often protected. Our latest Copyright Clearance Center (CCC) Velocity of Content blog post ?? explores key principles for reusing copyrighted visual content, whether through adaptation, citation, or reproduction, without infringing on the rights of the creator. https://lnkd.in/ejFunXMG

According to CCC's Roy Kaufman's recent Velocity of Content blog: https://loom.ly/5JfBDrM, the Thomson Reuters Enterprise Center GMBH and West Publishing Corp. V Ross Intelligence, Inc. case arose out of the surreptitious copying of the entire Westlaw database (after having been denied a license) by a company that wanted to create an arguably competing product. “More than copyrightability, to me the most important question is ‘was the copying fair use?’ The answer is ‘no.’” Hear more on the implications of this case from Roy, Joshua L. Simmons, Partner, Kirkland & Ellis, LLP, and Jennifer Pariser, Partner, Oppenheim + Zebrak, LLP, in our upcoming AI Litigation Update. ??

Q: How soon in the process should I have clients provide me with a list of content they want to reuse in a project so that I have enough time to seek permissions? Chole Olore, Education Program Specialist at CCC, shares her thoughts on this question below. To be both compliant and effective, medical communications projects require that you can access and share trusted content quickly under the protection of valid and current permission licenses.??Copyright compliance can be forgotten when procuring or using content under tight deadlines, or users might not understand...

Will we see you in London for Pistoia Alliance's European Annual Conference?

?? Join us March 25 for expert insights on the latest AI copyright rulings from speakers Joshua L. Simmons, Partner, Kirkland & Ellis, LLP, and Jennifer Pariser, Partner, Oppenheim + Zebrak, LLP, and moderator Roy Kaufman, CCC. Over 30 AI cases have been filed in the United States. These cases largely have been argued by analogy to existing precedents, such as Andy Warhol Foundation v. Goldsmith, Fox v. TVEyes, and Authors Guild v. Google. Although relevant in certain respects, those cases do not directly apply to the making of copies to train AI systems. This discussion will explore the latest updates in this area, including February 11th's summary judgment decision in Thomson Reuters v. Ross, which held that Ross’s copying of Westlaw to train its AI was not fair use. What do these recent developments mean to the ongoing AI litigations, the future of licensing, and the interplay between AI and the content industries. ??

Yesterday was my first day at Copyright Clearance Center (CCC) . The welcome and the introduction to the processes that an intern goes through couldn't have been better. I hope to learn a lot surrounded by so many professionals (each one even more incredible) and to live up to the expectations they have for me.
