13 | Olds College | Publicly Funded College | Institution has first right of refusal | Applied Research | 2018 | 3. IP is developed by a College staff member during their employment at the College outside of a research contract with a third party and using College resources. In this case, the College has first right of refusal to ownership of the IP. If ownership is accepted, the College declares that it intends to pursue full financial and legal obligations to IP ownership (e.g. pursuing patenting declarations in multiple jurisdictions including paying for filing and maintenance costs, etc.). If ownership is refused, the College forever relinquishes the right to own or profit from the patent. The decision to declare or refuse ownership must be made in writing within 60 days of a formal notice by the inventor(s) by email to the Vice President responsible for Applied Research. (Example: a researcher with access to a chemistry lab invents a new catalyst.) 4. IP is developed by College staff member(s) during a research project or program with a third party. In this case, the IP requirements are defined in the Research Agreement. Two scenarios are possible. A. The research contract falls under the IP provisions and guidance of the Tri-Council (Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC); Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC); Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR)). In this case, such as with NSERC-funded project for example, the IP agreement must satisfy the current Tri-Council requirements. For reference, please refer to the following link. http://www.nserc-crsng.gc.ca/NSERC-CRSNG/policies-politiques/ip-pi_eng.asp The Tri-Council IP agreement requirements may change from time-to-time. B. The research contract does not fall under the IP provisions and guidance of the Tri-Council. In this case, the IP agreement should adhere as closely as possible to scenario A (this paragraph) for consistency, but may contain differences that are required or requested by the third-party companies entering into the Research Agreement. In both scenarios A and B (this paragraph), College staff agree, prior to entering into a Research Agreement, to reasonably provide review and signatures for assignment, ownership and associated licensing and royalty documents. | https://www.oldscollege.ca/Assets/external/about-us/governance/policies/d-student-academic/D09%20Applied%20Research.pdf | |||||||||||||||||||

22 | University of Alberta | Public University | Faculty | University of Alberta Faculty Agreement | 2017 | 1. Ownership 1.1 Pursuant to 10.02 of the Agreement, a staff member who creates a Work resulting from or connected with the staff member’s duties or employment owns copyright in the Work. However, the University owns or has an interest in Works as provided in 1.4 to 1.7 inclusive, 2.1 to 2.9 inclusive, 3.1, 5.1, and 5.2 of this Appendix. 1.2 For the purposes of this Appendix and Article 10 of the Agreement, “Work” or “Works” means anything in which copyright subsists pursuant to the Copyright Act (Canada), whether published or unpublished. For greater certainty, Work includes: architectural works, artistic works, choreographic works, cinematographic works, collective works, dramatic works, literary works, musical works, compilations, performers’ performances, sound recordings and communication signals, all as defined in the Copyright Act (Canada). 1.3 A creator has moral rights in a Work, as provided under the Copyright Act. The Parties endorse and support the creator’s right to manage those moral rights. 1.4 If a staff member creates a Work (a) in the course of performing administrative or management duties or activities for the University, a Department, or a Faculty, including all units therein associated (e.g., Centres and Institutes); or (b) for the purposes of a committee or group of a Department, Faculty, or the University; then the University owns copyright in the Work. 1.5 If a staff member creates a Work pursuant to a written agreement between the staff member and the University, including an agreement under Article 7.02.2 of the Agreement, that agreement shall address the University’s arrangement with the staff member regarding ownership or other interest in that Work. 1.6 If a staff member creates a Work under a sponsored research funding agreement with a third party funder, copyright ownership and licensing are governed by the terms of the sponsored research funding agreement. Because the University shall enter into the sponsored research funding agreement with the sponsor, the University has the right to obtain from the staff member an assignment or licence of the copyright as necessary to fulfill its obligations to the sponsor under the sponsored research funding agreement. However, the staff member cannot unilaterally assign or licence Works that are not wholly owned or created by that staff member. 1.7 If a staff member creates a Work under any other agreement between the University and a third party, including but not limited to a secondment agreement or facility access agreement, copyright ownership and licensing are governed by the terms of the agreement between the University and the third party. To avoid any need for the staff member personally to transfer or agree to transfer rights relating to the Work to the third party (which may entail the personal liability of the staff member), the University has the right to obtain from the staff member an assignment or licence of the copyright as necessary to fulfill its obligations to the third party under the agreement. However, the staff member cannot unilaterally assign or licence Works that are not wholly owned or created by that staff member. 2. University Licence General Principles 2.1 Subject to 2.2 to 2.9 inclusive, the University is and shall be entitled to an immediate, nonexclusive, royalty-free, non-transferable, irrevocable licence to use any Work created or produced by a staff member that results from or is connected with the staff member’s duties or employment, for all purposes within the University’s approved mandate pursuant to the Post-Secondary Learning Act (Alberta). 2.2 The purposes referred to in 2.1 include, but are not be limited to, unit accreditation, unit or University marketing, and any not-for-profit activity. 2.3 The licence contemplated by 2.1 does not apply if, as a result of reasonable academic or pedagogical publishing practice, a staff member must assign copyright to a Work to a third party asa condition of publication. In such a case, the staff member shall make best efforts to cause the third party to provide a licence to the University in relation to the Work, such licence containing terms that are analogous to those described in 2.1. 2.4 The licence contemplated by 2.1 does not preclude a staff member from agreeing with the University to grant any additional licence or other rights in and to a Work to the University. 2.5 A staff member, reasonably believing that his or her Work is unsatisfactory for a proposed use due to outdating, incompleteness, negative impact on the professional reputation of the staff member, or other academic grounds, may amend the Work or require that its use be withheld. Limited Exception – Works Created to Fulfill Assigned Course Responsibilities 2.6 Except in the cases described in 2.7 to 2.9 inclusive, the licence contemplated by 2.1 does not apply to any Work created by a staff member to fulfill assigned course responsibilities under Articles 7.02.1 and 7.03.1 of the Agreement. 2.7 The licence contemplated by 2.1 includes those elements of a course outline that set out the information required by General Faculties Council policy, as described in the University Calendar. 2.8 If a staff member is unable or unavailable to deliver all or part of a course duly assigned to that staff member, the University may use the Work described in 2.6 to complete the delivery of the course. Such a licence will not be irrevocable, but instead will be for the duration of the course in that academic year. 2.9 The University may use a Work described in 2.6 for the purposes of unit accreditation, in connection with transfer credit determinations or as the University may be required to meet its obligations to students. | https://cloudfront.ualberta.ca/-/media/hrs/my-employment/agreements/faculty-agreement.pdf | |||||||||||||||||||
23 | University of Calgary | Public University | Faculty | Intellectual Property Policy | 1994 | Ownership 4.12 While patent, copyright, and other Intellectual Property legislation may give an employer ownership rights in Intellectual Property created by employees in the course of their employment, such arrangements are inconsistent with the University commitment to the open exchange of ideas and the publication, dissemination, and communication of the results of scholarly activity. Accordingly, at the University of Calgary: a) The Creator of Intellectual Property is the owner of Intellectual Property that is the result of the Creator's scholarship. However, there may be exceptions, as follows: b) The University is the owner of Intellectual Property produced by a Creator as a result of a contract between the University and an outside Sponsor under which rights to or ownership of the Intellectual Property are conveyed to the Sponsor or another party, and where the Creator has agreed in advance to the arrangements; c) The University is the owner of Intellectual Property which is the result from work assigned by the University pursuant to a contract of employment; d) The University is the owner of Intellectual Property which results from the performance of a contract for service, agreement, or commission in which the University and the Creator have agreed that the Intellectual Property will be University owned. | https://www.ucalgary.ca/policies/files/policies/Intellectual%20Property%20Policy.pdf | |||||||||||||||||||
