Webinars description

Creative Commons and Open Science for Arts, Design and Music

Abstract	Through this series of three webinars, Creative Commons (CC) aims to help OS-ADM project members develop open licensing expertise and a deeper understanding of recommended practices for better sharing of knowledge and culture, especially cultural heritage. The CC webinars are catered to meet the OS-ADM instructional needs and will provide professional learning opportunities on selected elements of copyright, open licensing in the cultural heritage world, and how to get involved in open movements.
Goals	The goals of the webinars are to hold a space for open discussions with project members with the hopes of educating and engaging in dialog on the many different topics under the umbrella theme of open culture. The CC Open Culture program champions better sharing of cultural heritage collections for the benefit of all and promotes the potential of open access to unlock universal access to knowledge and culture, pursuant to the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals. The webinars aim to offer an opportunity to understand CC’s mission, develop knowledge and skills in copyright and open licensing, and gain visibility among a global open culture community that stands for equity, sustainability, access, and better sharing.

Copyright and Open Access in Switzerland

Abstract	The webinar aims to briefly give an overview of the principles of copyright according to the Swiss Copyright Act with the help of concrete examples, especially what are the conditions for a work to be protected by copyright and related rights, what is the difference between the role of the author and that of the right holder, and which legal licenses, such as private use, educational purposes and quotation, does the law lay down. Moreover, a brief mention on how is the second publication right currently regulated in Switzerland and how can the author publish open access will be provided, after which there will be room for questions.
Goals	After the webinar participants should have enough knowledge about copyright to be more aware on how to generally manage copyrights, both when the participant creates a work (s/he is the author) and in case s/he uses someone else’s work.

A conversation with ProLitteris

Abstract	After having covered the basics of copyright and Creative Commons licensing in the previous webinars, we now turn our attention to Swiss CMO (Collective right Management Organisations) with a special focus on ProLitteris. Managing the copyright of original works in field of literature, photography and visual arts, ProLitteris is a key stakeholder when dealing with Open Access for Arts, Design and Music. The webinar is a conversation between Noa Bacchetta, attorney-at-law and lecturer with a focus on law in art and design as well as consultant for the OS-ADM research project, and Philip Kübler, ProLitteris CEO/Director General. The discussion will focus on Open Access with the aim of enquiring about the policies and agenda of ProLitteris on the topic. It is an occasion to clarify doubts and get some 'behind the scenes' of decision making. Speakers will discuss different case studies so as to provide a hands-on approach that might resonate with the audience. Participants are encouraged to send questions in advance (chiara.barbieri@supsi.ch) and to share their thoughts during the webinar.
Goals	Clarify ProLitteris' Open Access Policies Answer questions and doubts regarding the function and working principles of ProLitteris Discussion of case studies that provide a hand-on approach to the issues of Open Access Further mutual understanding between ProLitteris (licensors) and the community of researchers, academic staff, librarians and practitioners (licensees) in fields of arts, design and music

Introduction to Data Management Plan: Specifics of Data in the Arts and Humanities

Abstract	Funding bodies (especially EU and national ones) are asking with increasing frequency for accurate data management plan (DMP) when applying for fundings. DMP is thus become a funding requirement: increasingly, keeping a data management plan alongside research projects is becoming a condition of funding by many research funders, such as SNSF or Horizon Europe. The webinar introduces the benefits of DMP and provides a step by step practical approach to the topic by focusing on four crucial aspects: 1. data collection. 2. ethics, legal aspects, security, 3. data storage and 4. data sharing. In order to provide a hands-on perspective on DMP, the webinar includes a series of case studies that illustrate the dos and don'ts when compiling DMP. Participants are encouraged to send questions and challenges in advance (chiara.barbieri@supsi.ch) and to share their thoughts during the webinar.
Goals	Identify Arts-, Design- and Music-specific DMP Provide an hands-on approach to DMP: share tips and strategies
Target audience	Researchers, academic staff and librarians.

Open Access to cultural heritage: Ethical issues

Abstract	Cultural institutions fulfil the important task of making the digital cultural heritage publicly accessible. For a couple of decades they have made significant strides in digitising and opening up their collections. However, at least in some cases, this process may come into conflict with the rights, values and interests of the original owners of the cultural property or associated communities – this is especially the case with sensitive cultural heritage. This webinar explains why it is important to continue the conversation about copyright and open access to cultural heritage, and how ethical concerns in dealing with sensitive, digital cultural heritage can be adequately addressed.
Goals	The goals of the webinar are to hold a space for open discussions about ethical issues regarding open access to cultural heritage. The webinar aims to offer an opportunity to problematise open access to cultural heritage, understand the ethical implications and suggest some solutions or best practices by looking at case studies.
Target audience	Researchers, students, academic staff and librarians.

Open access and multimedia publications

Abstract	One of the main challenges of Open Access in Arts, Design and Music is the multimedia nature of many research projects in these disciplinary fields. Research outputs in Arts, Design and Music are, in fact, not limited to scientific papers, publications and datasets, but also include multimedia materials such as video, music and performances. This webinar focuses on three case studies in order to explore alternative forms of publication that feature multimedia elements. The selected case studies represent cutting-edge research project and provide an overview of the current state of the art. Active participation from members of the audience is highly encouraged as the goal of the webinar is to further debate and encourage creative thinking.
Goals	Explore the challenges and advance possible solutions to multimedia publications Investigate alternative forms of publication
