JISClegal Information

A new JISClegal newsletter has just been published. Among the articles is this one which may be of some interest to our e-learning enthusiasts.

Image Gallery on the Prowl!
A well-known commercial image gallery is known to be trawling UK Further and Higher Education websites in order to find unlicensed images to which it owns the copyright. A number of institutions have already received invoices from the US-based gallery asking for four-figure payments as back-royalties for use of the images. UK FE and HE institutions are advised to ensure that images are not used online without copyright clearance, and that tutors should be reminded about the possible consequences of the 'right-click'.
