Producing, managing and owning knowledge in the 21st century university

研究成果的使用、创造和传播是澳大利亚大学的一项核心职能，如果研究要在现实世界中产生影响，这一点至关重要。它受到知识产权法、全部门授予条件、与图书馆的许可协议以及大学关于知识产权所有权、著作权、开放获取和参与的政策的监管。国际法和实践创造了另一层监管。驾驭这一领域是每个学者和管理人员的责任，但这是一个复杂、前后不一的框架。对其进行规划，着眼于协调和一致性，将更好地推进公共目标，特别是改善获得影响和参与研究的机会。

The use, creation and dissemination of the products of research is a core function of Australian universities, and critical if research is to have impact in the real world. It is regulated by intellectual property laws, sector-wide grant conditions, licensing agreements with libraries and university policies on intellectual property ownership, authorship, open access and engagement. International law and practice creates another layer of regulation. Navigating this terrain is the responsibility of every academic and manager, but it is a complex, incoherent framework. Mapping it with an eye toward harmonization and coherence will better advance public goals, in particular improve access to research for impact and engagement.
