 "Licensing 101: a Workshop on Licensing Digital Resources"
 Workshop leaders: Sharon Farb and Barbara Schader

 The licensing of electronic or digital resources presents new and
 formidable challenges for those who must negotiate contracts for their
 library or information center. Ms. Farb's presentation will explore hot
 topics, challenges, and techniques for licensing electronic resources,
 with particular emphasis on the legal aspects of contract language and
 negotiation.  Participants are encouraged to bring sample contracts that
 contain problematic language or clauses for a review and discussion
 session.

 Sharon Farb is the Coordinator for Digital Acquisitions for the UCLA
 Library.  She oversees the licensing of digital resources and advises the
 Library on legal issues including copyright and intellectual property.
 Barbara Schader is the Head of Collection Development at the UCLA
 Biomedical Library.
