Journal Articles
You should provide links to our subscribed e-journals – not supply the PDFs.
Linking does NOT impact on copyright. A properly formatted link will work on and off campus.
Benefits of linking to LBS subscribed journals/magazines
- The usage data helps justify the School’s database subscriptions and gives us a view of what students are reading.
- There are no quantity limits with linking.
Disadvantages – of supplying PDFS instead of linking
- You can only supply one article from a single journal issue.
- We must check annually the journal is included in the CLA licence.
- We must attach a completed copyright cover sheet to each PDF each time the course is run.
- We must record the details (items and courses) and report this annually to the CLA (in order that authors and publishers receive royalties.)
