This is how it works at American newspapers. Oddly enough, even though the copyright lies with my publishers, our company allows us to peddle copies of our photos (produced on the clock) to those who may want them, setting our own price. A couple of years ago, we were taken over by our state's largest newspaper, and I wasn't informed the rules regarding that had changed, so I assume it's the same. I'm sure different companies have different policies. > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Mike Johnston > Subject: Basic copyright > > Work made in the course of employment > > (3) Where the author of a work was in the employment of some > other person under a contract of service or apprenticeship and > the work was made in the course of his employment by that > person, the person by whom the author was employed shall, in the > absence of any agreement to the contrary, be the first owner of > the copyright, >
