Denise Nicholson, the specialist librarian in
copyright and scholarly communication, has launched Scholarly Horizons, a resource and advisory service for
publishers, researchers and academics and more! According to the website launched this week, Scholarly Horizons offers various web
sessions which are particularly useful for academics, authors,
postgraduate students, and librarians, but can also be tailored for
corporates, government departments, specific interest groups, freelancers,
NGO’s, authors, and/or secondary school teachers and
learners.
In addition to this educational content, it has published its maiden informative ebulletin and they provide an array of related services which are described here.
This new service addresses a neglected need in the field of copyright and related rights. Knowing Denise from her work at Wits University, the service is likely to be of high quality and affordable. Afro-IP will be tracking her progress with interest and with luck she will send a guest post for our readers when she gets a gap.
