Copyright Clearance Center, Inc. (CCC), a leader in advancing copyright, accelerating knowledge, and powering innovation, will present a virtual Publishers Town Hall on May 5 at 10:00 EDT/15:00 BST/16:00 CEST.
‘Thinking Beyond the Crisis: Building Digital Resiliency’ will focus on the exceptional work global publishers in every field are doing to make the shift seamlessly to a digital environment. The program will share insights on how to confront business challenges caused by the coronavirus emergency and offer direction to look beyond the crisis and envision the shape of an industry transformed.
An audience of publishers across genres will learn how organisations are seeing beyond the crisis to identify opportunities, leverage new technologies, and ultimately create and embrace a transformed digital industry; discover trends that industry experts are learning from publishers as they work to build digital resiliency; engage with a broad set of publishing colleagues to share the experiences the industry is confronting today; and share expectations and plans to navigate the new reality.
Guest speakers will include: Tatiana Khayrullina, Director & Lead Analyst, Scientific and Technical Solutions, Outsell, Inc.; Colin Lovrinovic, Founder, Gould Finch; and Carl Robinson, Senior Director, CCC Publisher Solutions.
CCC recently announced its Education Continuity License to enable creative approaches to remote teaching and distance learning made necessary by the pandemic as a result of educators across the US asking questions about using copyrighted content and materials in innovative new ways to support distance learning. In response, CCC coordinated with its community of rightsholders to authorise the use of their materials at no cost by educators as required by the pandemic during this time of emergency. CCC is not delivering educational materials or content to educators; it is offering this new license to authorise US school districts, educators, parents and others to make immediate additional uses of materials that they have previously lawfully acquired.
To accelerate sharing of knowledge and ease online learning, CCC is continually updating its resource page of educational resources open for K-12 and higher education during the COVID-19 crisis. CCC recognises publishing and other information organisations for contributing to the common good by providing access to relevant COVID-19 content and created this living list to amplify the availability of open-to-read material. CCC has also gathered data visualisations, dashboards, and datasets related to COVID-19.
