Copyright

Understanding how to re-use content created by other people legally and fairly can be confusing and overwhelming. Below are some helpful tips and resources to help you ensure that you are re-using content appropriately.

Within Box of Broadcasts, you can build playlists, edit clips and request recordings for shows which haven’t yet aired in the ‘Guide’ section or search for suitable footage in BoB’s archives to illustrate a subject.

 You can set up an account for BoB using your Athens password. You will find this on Learn under the ‘Staff Resources’ section.
