RECOMMENDATION FROM UNIVERSITY COMMITTEE ON COPYRIGHTS AND RECORDINGS (20) In accordance with Section 19 of The General Rules Concerning University Organization and Procedure, the University Committee on Copyrights and Recordings has reviewed a request from the Office of Agricultural Communications (Urbana-Champaign campus) that approval be given to a proposal for the sale of various materials developed initially for the teaching needs of the College of Agriculture and for the sharing of net income from such sales with respective "authors" of the materials. As of June 1, 1971, the net income amounted to $11,116.86 before any sharing with the authors. The Committee has given extensive consideration to the proposed distribution of the net proceeds derived from the sale of the audio-tutorial classroom materials developed by the College of Agriculture for campus instructional purposes but sold to other educational institutions. The Committee recommends that this accumulated net income be allocated as follows: (a) $5,558.21 to the University; (b) a total of $5,558.65 for distribution to the following authors in the amounts indicated: D.
