Wash. Admin. Code § 495D-180-025 - Procedures

(1) In any instance where copyrightable materials are generated other than by individual efforts, i.e., partially or fully supported or sponsored by the college or by an outside agency but involving college participation, the college copyright administrator will confer with the individual creator and other concerned parties to reach a copyright agreement which is acceptable to all parties and consistent with the college copyright policy.

(2) The college copyright administrator may appoint a copyright committee of up to three persons to advise on matters related to ownership, disposition, and royalty distribution from copyrightable materials.

(3) All programs expected to generate copyrightable materials by other than individual effort must undergo prior review by the copyright administrator in order that a preliminary determination can be made regarding rights, disposition of materials, and distribution of income.

(4) Records of advance arrangements and copies of all agreements must be part of all project files; the creator must provide copies of all agreements to the copyright administrator.

(5) Any agreement made with individual creators may be reviewed and revised subsequently at the option of the college copyright administrator.

(6) All contracts or agreements made with individuals or sponsoring agencies must contain reference to the college copyright policy as a basis for the agreement.

(7) In all instances, copyright agreements and decisions affecting those agreements will be formulated on the assumption that protection of the rights of individuals is important and that agreements should be designated to stimulate individual initiative.

(8) All agreements made under the college copyright policy and these procedures should be designed to assure adequate controls and to fulfill college accountability for allocated public resources and the reimbursement of those resources where appropriate.
