Section 495D-180-030 - Use of materials(1) Two categories of use are differentiated for purposes of this policy: (a) Internal use: Use by any unit of the college for instruction or other educational purposes.(b) External use: Use by educational institutions other than the college, use by government agencies and other nonprofit institutions, and use resulting from lease or other contractual arrangements for commercial distribution of the materials.(2) Use of college-supported or college-sponsored materials under this policy shall be subject to the following conditions:(a) Internal use: (i) Use within the college does not require the approval of either the individual creator or the college unless advance approval is required by a prior written agreement.(ii) As long as the individual creator of college-supported or college-sponsored materials remains employed by the college, he or she may request reasonable revision of the materials prior to any instance of internal use and may ask that the materials be withdrawn from internal use if necessary revisions are not feasible. The final decision regarding appropriate revision or withdrawal of materials will be made by the copyright administrator.(iii) If the individual creator terminates employment with the college, then the college retains the right to continue internal use of the college-supported or college-sponsored materials except as the individual and the college agree in writing on special conditions for subsequent internal use of the materials and the procedures for their revision.(b) External use: Licensing or sale of college-supported or college-sponsored materials for external use shall be preceded by written agreement between the college and the individual creator specifying the conditions of use, including provisions concerning the right of the individual creator to revise materials periodically or to withdraw them from use, subject to existing agreement, in the event revisions are not feasible.Wash.
