Doug,

A useful resource for you may be the "Sample CD-ROM Licensing Agreements for Museums" (the Canadian Common Law Edition) available through the Canadian Heritage Information Network (http://www.chin.gc.ca)  Although it was prepared for Museums working on CD-ROM projects, many of the issues will be similar (I assume), and the sample contracts are written to protect the interests of the museum.  These samples however do not replace the need for a museum to consult with legal counsel about its multimedia licensing terms and conditions.

Good luck with your project!

Subject:        Contract - looking for examples

I am searching for examples of contracts between museums and media
producers.  In this case a small community museum is entering into a
partnership with a private video  producer on a 1 hour video.  If there
is anyone out there that could provide a framework or example of a
contract, I would appreciate hearing from you.
