Subject: Copyright laws
Ghufran Sukkaryeh, a PhD student of Professor Hector MacQueen's, whose topic is affiliated to the work of the AHRC Research Centre seeks assistance with some research into copyright in museums and galleries. We would be grateful if you could complete the questionnaire available at: <URL:https://www.survey.ed.ac.uk/ghufransurvey/> if relevant to your area of work. If you have colleagues within the museums and galleries sectors, it would be helpful if you could forward this email to ensure as wide a response rate as possible. For background, the questionnaire forms a part of a PhD research under the title of "The Impact of Copyright on Museums and Galleries". Data gathered from the questionnaire seeks to examine the position and value of copyright in museums and galleries. Furthermore, it aims to identify copyright problems in these institutions, how these should be tackled, and how the law should respond to their needs as cultural institutions in the age of technology.
