Copyright Notices
Unless otherwise specified the copyright in the contents of all the pages
in this web site are owned or licensed to MM. Unless otherwise specified,
the authors of the literary and artistic works in the pages in this web
site have asserted their moral right pursuant to Section 77 of the Copyright
Designs and Patents Act 1988 to be identified as the author of those works.
Who Owns Copyright
In UK law the first owner of copyright in a work is the 'author'. This
can be an individual or an organisation, as in cases where a work is produced
in the course of employment the initial copyright is owned by the employer
unless an agreement to the contrary exists. The copyright in a work can,
and is, traded as commodity. Authors frequently assign the copyright to
their work to a publisher in return for royalties on copies sold, but
in doing so sell their own right to copy the work. An alternative is for
an author to licence a publisher to produce copies, in which case they
only assign those rights to the work which are specified in the licence
and retain ownership of the copyright themselves.
How long does Copyright last
Known Author - 70 years from the end of the year of the authors death.
Multiple Known Authors - 70 years from the end of the year of the last
identifiable authors death. Unknown Author - 70 years from the end of
the year in which the work was made or, - 70 years from when the work
was made available to the public, if this event occurs within the 70 year
period from the date of creation. Sound recordings, broadcasts, cable
programmes and films, with no identifiable authors - 50 years from the
date of creation or release.
