10 Third Party Copyright and eTheses When you are making your thesis available online you will need to seek permission if you are using substantial extracts or material owned by another person (third party). Good academic practice to acquire permission for use of third party material in anticipation of future publication If something is out of copyright you may be able to use it (previous three slides should help you decide) 09/06/2015© The University of Sheffield 10 © No Known copyright restrictions. SDASM Archive

11 What is Third Party Copyright? Lengthy quotations/extracts from books & journals Illustrations such as images, maps, graphs, photographs, tables or models Music scores Sound recordings Published articles included in appendices Film Unpublished material e.g. manuscripts 09/06/2015© The University of Sheffield 11 ©.

13 Wilkie Collins – inventor of the sensation novel (usually serialised) What about using short quotations then...................? 09/06/2015© The University of Sheffield 13 “Make ‘em cry, make ‘em laugh, make ‘em wait...” © Public domain

14 Short Quotations If third party material is a short quotation from a published work, acknowledged and referenced correctly, this may be included If in doubt ask yourself whether you would consider your rights had been infringed if someone else used a similar quotation from your work 09/06/2015© The University of Sheffield 14 © Public domain “..make ‘em wait...”

15 Unpublished Material Manuscripts, photographs, accounts, minutes etc. If author dead more than 50 years and work over 100 years old it is probably out of copyright.
