Hi All, This might be an inappropriate forum(?) but the following also includes electronic reproducion, and future styles of publishing, whatever they might be. Currently the IUCr allows Crown-copyright to be maintained for a journal article submitted by a government employee (have used it myself as a Canadian government employee). But there seems to be no signed transfer of rights to the IUCr as occurs with the standard IUCr copyright signover. So the IUCr is guaranteed all the required reproduction rights for these articles (including electronic reproduction in current and "future forms") does there need to be a similar sign-over document for government employees to sign over these reproduction rights, while technicially the author's employer (the government) still has the copyright)? ---------- Should (can?) the IUCr also be requesting/specifying exclusive reproduction rights for the articles? Even though the copyright is not being transferred. --------- Currently, there is also no copyright statement reproduced on these types of articles in the IUCr journals. Does there need to be a copyright statement to the effect (or some such legally kosher text): "Copyright 'required text here', with reproduction rights assigned to the IUCr." ???
