The employees and faculty of InterNACHI University is committed
to disseminating the fruits of its research and scholarship as widely
as possible. In keeping with that commitment, the Faculty adopts the
following policy:
Each Faculty member grants to InterNACHI nonexclusive permission to make available his or
her scholarly articles and to exercise the copyright in those articles
for the purpose of open dissemination.
In legal terms, each Faculty
member grants to InterNACHI a nonexclusive, irrevocable, paid-up, worldwide
license to exercise any and all rights under copyright relating to each
of his or her scholarly articles, in any medium, and to authorize others to do the
same. The policy will apply to all scholarly articles written while the
person is a member of the Faculty or employee of InterNACHI.
The Education Department may make the scholarly article available to the
public in an open-access repository. Education Department, in
consultation with the CEO and Director of Education, will be
responsible for interpreting this policy, resolving disputes concerning
its interpretation and application, and recommending changes to the
Faculty. The policy will be reviewed every five years.
This policy applies to “scholarly articles.” Scholarly articles are articles that describe the fruits of research
and that authors give to the world for the sake of inquiry and knowledge
without expectation of payment. Such articles are typically presented
in peer-reviewed scholarly journals and conference proceedings. Many written products are not encompassed under this specific notion
of scholarly article, such as books, courses, video, instructional materials, educational offerings, commissioned work, presentations, slides or other copyrighted works. This policy is not meant to address these kinds of works.
