Screen sharing
Before displaying literature in an online meeting, confirm that the specific material and planned use are permitted by OA’s current guidance.
Online meeting and literature guidance
Sharing OA Literature Online.
Use OA-approved literature in online meetings and digital communications in ways that support recovery while respecting OA copyright and trademark requirements.
Copies and recordings
Screen sharing does not automatically authorize distributing copies, posting images, or preserving copyrighted material in a recording.
Credits and permission
Use required copyright credits and request permission when OA guidance says the proposed use requires it.
A practical meeting check
Confirm before you share.
- 01
Identify the exact material
Check the title, publisher, format, and whether the item is current OA-approved literature or another protected work.
- 02
Check the current OA policy
Review OA’s official copyright and trademark guidance for electronic screen sharing, reprinting, credits, and permitted materials.
- 03
Use the narrowest appropriate access
Share only what the meeting needs, avoid unnecessary redistribution, and contact OA when the intended use is unclear.
