Printing & Publishing / contribution to magazine | | German term or phrase: Werkbeitrag | from a contract between an author and a company.
The author carried out tests on a dental product at a university and agreed to write an article about the tests, “der auf die Tests der Universität XXX verweist und zur Publikation im XX Magazin eingereicht werden soll („Werkbeitrag“).The author “räumt (name of company) ein unbefristetes einfaches Nutzungsrecht am Werkbeitrag im Sinne des Urheberrechtsgesetzes ein“. The company can therefore use the article in its advertising material. The author will receive a fee “für die Erstellung des Werkbeitrages.“
There is a previous entry for Werkbeitrag but I don’t think the term is being used in the same sense here as it refers here to a contribution to a magazine. |

Software specifically needed to support a regular academic work product or which is designed to disseminate the results of academic research and scholarly study is also considered a regular academic work product.
