9、000 Many of the principles behind OLT are derived from ,EDItEUR and rights metadata,Licensing terms - the problem,Growth of digital collections in libraries Need to automate electronic resource management Variation in licence terms What are library users permitted to do? Under what conditions? Which

10、 classes of users are permitted to do what? What exceptions are there to what they are permitted to do? Licenses are, typically, negotiated then filed away How can libraries and users know what has been negotiated and avoid saying “no” just in case?,What libraries say they want,Expression of rights

19、e future.,The need for precision,e.g. Inter Library Loan (ILL) Everyone knows what ILL means! ILL clause from one model contract :,“The Licensee may supply to an Authorised User of another library within the same country as the Licensee a copy of an individual document being part of the Licensed Mat

20、erials by post, fax or electronic transmission via the Internet or otherwise, for the purposes of research or private study and not for Commercial Use.”,i.e. lots of variables and they do vary!,but allowing for ambiguity,Format needs to be able to cope with high level definitions (e.g. ILL) if thats

21、 what the licence uses i.e. deliberate ambiguity But needs to be able to express clauses at a more granular level if the licence does,ONIX for Licensing Terms (OLT),Takes into account the requirements of all stakeholders in the chain Provides for the full complexity of rights management requirements

22、 Based on a logical events-based “rights model” Fully extensible Able to support any future business model Able to support multimedia rights management Designed to support interoperability Can be mapped to other well structured metadata formats,Not a “Rights Expression Language”,XrML / ODRL are desi

24、mmunication of usage terms (rights metadata), not technical protection Library policies can overide message (e.g. fair use),The publication of ERMIs work in 2004 underlined the need for a standard for expressing and communicating license terms in the library sector With funding from JISC (Joint Info

25、rmation Systems Committee of the UK Higher Education Funding Council) and the Publishers Licensing Society, EDItEUR commissioned Rightscom to undertake a proof of concept project with the ONIX team A workshop in April 2005, with publishers, librarians, agents, system vendors and ERMI representatives

26、 confirmed the potential for this work,OLT proof of concept,At this point (2005) OLT was generally identified with publishers licenses to academic libraries However, EDItEUR always conceived OLT as something that should be applicable to many types of licensor and licensee, many types of licensed con

27、tent, and many types of usage There is, therefore, NO single ONIX Licensing Terms format OLT is a family of license-related formats with a shared underlying framework,OLT and its potential applications,A data model for describing licensing events All terms defined in a structured OLT Dictionary that

28、 will grow as new application needs are identified Individual formats specified with appropriate levels of specialization as separate XML schemas and documentation,The OLT framework,ONIX for Publications Licenses (ONIX-PL) Message formats for the International Federation of Reproduction Rights Organ

30、LT applications,Licensor to licensee, where the license is based on a licensors model, to be used (among other things?) to feed an ERMS Licensee to licensor, where the license is based on a licensees model Negotiation? ERMS to ERMS (eg within a consortium) but this will be a different level of imple

39、ediaries and libraries.” Co-chaired by Alicia Wise (PLS) and Nathan Robertson (ERMI) Small expert sub-group and wider reference group of 60+ stakeholders,Library ERM systems will manage message format for their libraries Smaller publishers cannot be expected to draft XML versions of their licences J

40、ISC funded specification of drafting tool to enable publishers to produce ONIX-PL expressions of their licences, with input from publishers: Wiley, CUP, OUP, RSM, RSC, Rockefeller UP JISC and PLS (Publishers Licensing Society) co-funded development of licence drafting tools (open source freely avail

41、able to all) Also useful for libraries,ONIX-PL Editing Tools (OPLE),Some OPLE features,No familiarity with XML required The system will support two “views” of a license expression: “Form” view, used for editing “Page” view, used for comparing a complete license with a the paper-based original “Page

42、view” will also be useful for libraries wishing to check publishers ONIX-PL expression of their licenses,JISC: the first OPLE user,JISC Collections (a limited company formed by the UK Higher Education Funding Council to manage the acquisition of licensed electronic resources for the academic communi

43、ty) has identified a need to express all its existing licenses with publishers (around 80) in electronic form for use in ERMS With support from EDItEUR , JISC is currently using ONIX-PL and the OPLE editing tools to do this JISC insist on mapping in detail to ensure that all the negotiated usage rig

44、hts are expressed,but JISC have a problem,JISC are in the market for an ERM system but havent found one that can accept full ONIX-PL Mapping their ONIX-PL expressions to ERMI terms is fine for the more common terms, nearly all of which will in any case be permitted, but excludes many of the more con

45、troversial terms that they have negotiated (e.g. Deposit a digital copy of a resource in a digital repository) Extension of the ERMI terms, and mechanisms for their ongoing maintenance, will help, but they have a “plan B”,RELI (Registry of Electronic Licences),The JISC Registry of Electronic Licence

46、s (RELI) project aims to establish the user requirements for a Licence Registry able to integrate with the JISC Information Environment. It also aims to design, build, deploy and test a pilot based on the requirements. The Registry will enable key elements of licences to be made available so that a

47、user can be provided with licence information at the point of use without additional human intervention. The project began in April 2007 and will run for 2 years.,What do libraries really want?,JISC and UK libraries that we work with say that libraries want to receive ready-mapped machine readable l

48、icenses into their systems, expressing all the usage rights that they have negotiated ERM vendors seem to believe that US libraries will wish to map their own licenses or exchange encoded licenses mainly from other libraries/consortia (a trust issue?)
