• Copyright exists as soon as creative expression is fixed in tangible form
• The creator or author may be asked to transfer to a publisher, relinquishing their own rights over the material

The Rights7
• Owner reserves rights to– Reproduce– Prepare derivative works (e.g. editions, translations,
sequels)– Distribute copies– Perform in public– Display the work publicly– Perform in public through digital audio transmission

Copyright extension23
Copyright (and patents) were intended to give creators exclusive rights to their work for a length of time long enough to incentivise the creation of new work.

Things to note about CC licenses31
• They are irrevocable - What is released under a CC license stays under a CC license
• You can re-release a work under a new license, but previous copies will retain the license they were shared under
• You can only CC license works that you have the rights to (which is important for collab!)
What if you are the creator and work at UH?32

• Applies to faculty and staff• Is affected, in the case of grants, by the grantor’s licensing

holds copyright.
