Lunch & Learn: Publishing Contracts and Authors’ Rights: What Researchers Need to Know

Presenter: Suzanna Farace Marazza | CCdigitallaw 

This webinar explores key aspects of authors’ rights in academic publishing, with a focus on publishing contracts and the second publication right according to Swiss law.

Participants will learn how copyright and contract law interact, how copyright transfer agreements differ from licenses and affect the use of their work, and what options they have to retain their rights. Through practical examples and discussion, the webinar will equip researchers with the knowledge to negotiate contracts, safeguard their rights, and maximize the visibility of their publications.

Diese Lunch & Learn Serie bietet Angehörigen der UZH monatlich einen kurzen und übersichtlichen Einblick in verschiedene Aspekte rund um Open Science. Der Anlass beginnt jeweils mit einem halbstündigen Input-Referat und schliesst mit einer offenen Fragenrunde.
