Hi Jonathan

this is very much what we're looking to do - the copyright is a legacy feature that will stay until we sort out exactly how to progress this for us. Which is why I asked in my original email if anyone had any advice for abstracts & indexing services re open data issues (if any). Library holdings are qualitatively different I think - and we had been moving forward with the understanding that online production for a&i followed the same principles of copyright/`ownership' as hard-copy production (ie the level of information we extract and produce doesn't infringe anything). I would just like to clarify the situation and get precedent if possible before we draft our statement. Otherwise, we're good to go with this I think

anybody know of any existing a&i services who have been through this already?

cheers

Isabel
