Reprints Desk Legal & Risk Management Service Features

"See no evil, hear no evil" is not a compliance strategy that we recommend for corporate compliance officers (CCO) or corporate responsibility officers who are serious about reducing legal risk and financial liability. The same is true for executives at private enterprises no matter the size or any origins in academia.

While regulatory compliance is top of mind for most, the provisioning of tools to make compliance easy often is not. Copyright compliance on the other hand, is normally an after-thought for all but corporate librarians that is until awareness is heightened about the law and consequences. You dont need to go much further than the Texaco vs. American Geophysical Union, RIAA/Capitol vs. Jammie Thomas-Rasset, or Lowry's Reports v. Legg Mason copyright cases to that each resulted in monetary fines in excess of $1 million (USD) for the defendants.

Ensuring that your organization has a copyright compliance policy and an action plan is a good start. Communicating this information to your procurement professionals and lines of business also becomes critical.

When youre ready to take action, there are many ways that Reprints Desk can help:

* Auditing article retrieval and re-use workflows across your company from research to regulatory, medical affairs, and sales and marketing
* Providing Copyright-Compliant Article Delivery Services and reporting
* Replacing or re-engineering the workflows for in-house product literature databases or article repositories
* Integrating our solutions with Rightsphere, the rights management and advisory tool from Copyright Clearance Center (CCC) that makes it easier for users to find the answer What am I allowed to do with this content? and also further enhances the value of CCC licenses for CCC license holders

In addition to improving copyright compliance, our enterprise content procurement solutions provide deep regulatory visibility into the usage of scientific journal articles for any approved on-label or unapproved off-label uses.
