    ROUNDTABLE DISCUSSION - 15 MARCH 2017 - LONDON

    RightsLink Permissions Roundtable with Copyright Clearance Center (CCC)

    This roundtable discussion event was attended by a useful group of senior editorial services managers, working in medical communications agencies, responsible for securing licenses to re-use copyrighted content in their client projects. A lively and open discussion was enjoyed by all.

    Copyright Clearance Center (CCC) sent the product management team for their RightsLink product, a point-of-content ecommerce service which vends permission licenses on behalf of over 70 STM publishers worldwide. It was a valuable opportunity to share experiences and discuss current issues around copyright most relevant to medical communications today and CCC have committed to following up with additional activities focused around the specific needs and interests of the MedComms community.
