Colin Work, University of Southampton gave a plenary talk on “Publish and be Damned? – Freedom, Responsibility and AUP” at the IWMW 1998 event.
Abstract
Caught between staff and students insisting on their rights to publish on the web and management concerns about appropriate material, what is a “Webmaster” to do? This talk will summarise the key areas of risk in putting material on the WWW, identify potential liability and suggest ways of running a WWW service which minimises the institution’s (and Webmasters!) exposure while catering for the users requirements.
