I have a practical question for members of this discussion list. For
those of you who are in an academic institution, do you provide
emeritus faculty with online access to licensed content? Do you
differentiate between those who are retired vs. those who are awarded
the emeritus title? (My understanding is that in my institution, at
least, the granting of emeritus status is not automatic upon
retirement.) Let’s assume also that emeritus faculty already have full
network access, an institutional email account, etc.
Another question I have about this issue is, how does this fit with
your existing license agreements? I’ve looked through ours and have
yet to find one that specifically mentions emeritus faculty as
authorized users. I don’t interpret that to mean they aren’t
authorized, necessarily — just that this status isn’t specifically
mentioned, at least as far as I can see.
