Copyright for Thesis & Mt. David
Putting the finishing touches on your thesis or Mt. David project? Â Ready to share it with the world?
If your work is going into SCARAB — the ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ institutional repository — you need to be sure that it conforms to copyright regulations.  SCARAB is a publication, and while copyright law gives you broad leeway to adapt other people’s work in your research, it doesn’t grant you the right to republish that work.
Don’t worry! Â We’re here to help!
Now that your thesis is coming into focus, bring your questions or concerns to Ladd 148 @ 4 PM on Monday March 19 or 7 PM on Wednesday March 21.  Chris Schiff will be there to go over the submission process, the forms that you will need to sign with your advisor, and the ways to structure a thesis or presentation so that it conveys your research without violating copyright.
Can’t make it then? Contact Chris at

for an individual meeting time that does fit your schedule!
