Broken link: Sampson's PhD thesis

vlabatut commented 5 years ago

The link for Sampson's PhD thesis, "A Novitiate in a Period of Change: An Experimental and Case Study of Social Relationships", seems to be broken.

Thanks for flagging it, @vlabatut

Dear @smsaladi _ I believe you were the one to share Sampson's PhD diss. via a Dropbox link with the [statnet] mailing-list (on March 28, 2016). In a reply to your email, @martinamorris expressed interest to upload it to the [statnet] wiki, but AFAICT, that has not happened.

I've upload a temp. copy of the file at this address for @vlabatut and others to be able to access it:

https://f.briatte.org/temp/sampson1968.pdf

Please let me know if [statnet] might host the file in the near future. If not, I'll find another way to make it available online (including it in this repo would work but would not be the best solution in my view).

smsaladi commented 5 years ago

Wow that was a while ago! I must have deleted it at some point when cleaning out my files. Good thing you were able to find it elsewhere!

briatte commented 5 years ago

Posting to [statnet] guarantees eternal fame among people like me who archive all their mailing-lists :)

The PDF copy I posted is yours, which I downloaded when you posted it there.

briatte commented 5 years ago

Dear @martinamorris -- Would it be possible to host Sampson's dissertation on the [statnet] wiki, please? See discussion above.

martinamorris commented 5 years ago

Sure -- if there are no copyright issues, we'd be honored to do that.

briatte commented 5 years ago

That'd be great!

The PDF copy of Sampson's PhD diss. reads "Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner. Further reproduction prohibited without permission" at the bottom of all pages.

Perhaps @smsaladi will know more on whether the document can be circulated without any copyright violation.

Dear all,

Not sure this issue has a solution, but bumping it just in case.

smsaladi commented 4 years ago

Hi! Not sure how much help I can provide, but here is what I think from a bit of reading:

Works created before 1978

For works published or registered before 1978, the maximum copyright duration is 95 years from the date of publication, if copyright was renewed during the 28th year following publication.[39] Copyright renewal has been automatic since the Copyright Renewal Act of 1992.

For works created before 1978, but not published or registered before 1978, the standard §302 copyright duration of 70 years from the author's death also applies.[40] Prior to 1978, works had to be published or registered to receive copyright protection.

Sampson’s thesis is dated 1969, so this section could apply. I think it’s unlikely that he or Cornell would have renewed the copyright at 28 years. So... I think it would be safe/legal to post the pdf on the wiki.

briatte commented 4 years ago

@smsaladi Thanks, and I agree with you, we should be able to post the file. I'll keep the current link alive until someone offers better hosting.

martinamorris commented 4 years ago

We're in the process of updating the statnet website -- into a GitHub hosted version. Would be happy to post it there in a "Resources" section if you like.

At this point we only have the Workshops wiki up. If time is of the essence, I can post it there for now. But if you can hold on for a bit, we'll have a real place for it.

briatte commented 4 years ago

Thanks! Yes, I think that would make the most sense. No rush, but please simply let me know when I can move the file (if I can do that myself).

briatte commented 1 year ago

Dear @martinamorris -- Any chance that your group might be to host the Sampson 1968 PhD diss. on the new statnet website?

I'm still hosting it at the 'temp' link above right now.

martinamorris commented 1 year ago

We'd be happy to. Will set that up this week. :)

This is one of those zombie threads that keeps returning ;)

So, the document hosted by @briatte has this stamped on every page:

Regardless of the general copyright status, this seems like it means we need permission, at least for this particular document.

I've checked the Cornell University Library, and they don't have this item online: https://catalog.library.cornell.edu/catalog/4839745

It is available online via ProQuest, but that's behind a paywall, and the pages have the same restriction. In the details section they state this:

Copyright: Database copyright ProQuest LLC; ProQuest does not claim copyright in the individual underlying works.

I think this is worth pursuing further. Before I start, does anyone here have some suggestions?
