A now deceased family member has recently had his war memoirs made available via the local museum.
I was happily telling the museum that anyone could have a copy, no probs, until someone pointed out that we (me and siblings) will be mighty peeved if if they are used as a basis for a book or film and we have passed on the copyright, deliberately or unintentionally so have no control or financial gain (plus DSis would want a starring role ).
Can we allow free access to the memoirs in eg a Word doc but maintain copyright rights?
