Summary:

Use the link to access the panel discussion posted to YouTube on June 1, 2012 by the Berkman Center for Internet and Society.  The event was sponsored by the American Bar Association Section of Intellectual Property Law/ University Intellectual Property Law Committee.  A brief description of the event reads as follows: “Does mandating free online access to papers resulting from federally funded research violate the Copyright Act or treaty obligations? Panelists discuss this question, in the context of the broader policy issues raised by such open access mandates. They consider the pending Federal Research Public Access Act, as well as the National Institutes of Health Public Access Policy. Mark Seeley, Senior Vice President and General Counsel of Elsevier, and Peter Suber, Faculty Fellow at the Berkman Center for Internet and Society, are the main panelists. Simon Franzini, a Harvard Law School Cyberlaw Clinic student, introduces the law and policy. The discussion is moderated by Jonathan Hulbert, University Attorney at Harvard and Vice-Chair of the Committee on University Intellectual Property Law.”
