Recommendations, University Committee on Copyrightable Works
( 12) The University Committee on Copyrightable Works submits the following
recommendations.
I. Methods and Materials for Teaching Occupational Suruival Skills - Robert E.
Nelson, assistant professor of vocational and technical education, Urbana, au-
thor; supported by the Illinois Office of Education.
The contract with the sponsor provides for the release of all copyrights to the
University, and the net royalty income from the sale of the book is estimated by
the department to be less than $5,000 in any one year. The committee recommends
that the author be awarded 50 percent of the net royalty income received by the
University from sales of the book.
2. Series on Bilingual Education, Volumes 2 through 6-Henry T. Trueba, pro-
fessor of secondary education, Urbana, and Carol B. Barnett-Mizrahi, visiting
assistant specialist in education, Urbana, authors; supported by the US. Office
of Education.
The royalty income distribution on the first volume of this series was approved
by the Board of Trustees on June 21, 1978. The committee recommends that 50
percent of net royalties received by the University, not payable to others, be
awarded to the authors of volumes two through six of the book series on bilingual
education.
I concur in these recommendations.
On motion of Mr. Velasquez, these recommendations were approved.
