Configuring Leganto Copyright-Related Procedures
- To set the default creative commons value of the reading list, see Configuring the Default Creative Commons Value for a Reading List.
- To configure the copyright options presented to an instructor when the instructor uploads a file while creating a citation, see Configuring File Upload in Leganto.
- To configure warnings about soon-to-expire copyrights, see Configuring Warnings.
- If you are working with United States' CCC, see Clearing Copyrights Through the Copyright Clearance Center (CCC).
- If you are working with the UK's CLA, see Integrating with the UK's Digital Content Store (DCS) and Configuring the Display of British CLA Copyright Information.
- Digitization Processing — About digitization workflow as handled by the librarian.
- Configuring Digitization Profile Rules — Configuring the rules that determine if a digitization or copyright request is declined, approved, or sent for manual review.
Also, watch Managing Copyright for Citations (5:56 min) and Communicating with the Library (5:15 min).
- instructor_digitization_request/instructor_digitization_electronic and/or instructor_copyright_clearance are set to course_association.
- assign_to is set.
- managing_department is set.
- For a digitization request, the citation is a repository title. For a copyright clearance request, the citation is an uploaded file, and the copyright was not already set as self-declared or marked as Creative Commons.
- The citation does not already have an existing library physical digitization request (any citation can only have one open digitization request).
- assign_to — By default, the requester of an instructor digitization request is the staff member assigned to the reading list. If there is no staff member assigned to the reading list, the user defined in this parameter is the requester. A valid value is a username. This user receives a notification about the digitization results; see Ful Digitization Notification Item Letter in Letter Types.
- associate_course_approved_copyright — Add or remove courses from reading lists with citations that have an approved copyright. The recalculation is done overnight.
The process of adding or removing courses from reading lists can be done individually or in bulk from the Reading Lists Task List. (See Adding and Removing Courses from a Reading List). When doing so, if a copyright on the list is already approved, it is recalculated.
You cannot remove an association in bulk if a copyright on the list is approved.
To remove a course from the list, there must be another course already attached to the list.
An overnight job runs to recalculate the copyright on any lists in which the course association was changed during that day. The job report can be viewed via the scheduled job.
If a copyright's start date is in the past when the recalculation is done, the Date Available To of the existing copyright is changed to the date of the course association, and a new copyright request is created. If the request end date has already been reached, no additional action is taken. If the start date has not yet arrived, the date of the course is added to the copyright. If there are two or more courses, the earliest start date and the latest end date of all the courses are used.
If the recalculation causes the copyright status to change to Not Approved, the citation status changes to Ready for Processing. If the copyright is approved, the citation status is taken from the citation_copyright_approved parameter.
If the copyright status was previously approved and it changes to Not Approved, an Approved copyright changed alert is added to the citation.
This does not apply to lists with a License Type of Bolk, CLA, or CCC.

When set to true, instructors can only create requests for repository citations. see instructor_copyright_clearance and instructor_digitization_clearance.

When false (default), files with an approved copyright status are only available to students when the citation status is Complete.
- grace_period_days — Number of days after a citation's material's copyright clearance ends that the materials can still be viewed by a student. The default is 0.
