Harvard Business Review licensing is so ridiculous, I think you're only allowed to read it in the public restroom on 2nd Tuesdays.
Seriously- they make a CD-ROM that's usable on more than a single library computer? ~Barb On Jul 27, 2015, at 1:00 PM, Chris Lewis <cle...@american.edu> wrote: A kerfuffle has arisen in my library about whether the right of first sale still applies toward the purchase of HBR case studies on CD-ROM if there is no additional license agreement accompanying the purchase. I had assumed that if a library orders copies and HBR fills the orders, there's an understanding that the items will circulate like other library books and videos. Have any of you run into any legal static regarding HBR case studies on CD-ROM? BTW I am aware that they limit the length of time the case studies can be used so my question is just whether even time-restricted library circulation is permissible. -- Chris Lewis American University Library 202.885.3257 VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions.
