Abstract

In accordance with the Civil code of the Russian Federation, a research paper is the result of intellectual activity, which is provided with state protection. The author of the research paper owns the right of authorship, the right to a name and other non-property rights. If the paper is created within the framework of the authors' implementation of their official duties, the exclusive right to the paper belongs to the employer.
With the consent of the employer, the author concludes a license agreement with the publisher for the publication of the paper on the terms proposed by the publisher. Signing of the license agreement does not entail the transfer of the exclusive right to the publisher. Even if the employer has instructed the author to enter into a copyright agreement with the publisher under an exclusive license, the employer reserves the right to use the work, including the right to publish the work on its website.
The author (copyright holder) always retains the right to create derivative works. Often imposed by the publisher terms of the license agreement, limiting the author's right to create works on the basis of previously published articles, have no legal force.
The publication by the author of derivative works containing fragments of the author's previous paper should not be considered as a violation of publishing ethics. The term "self-plagiarism" is incorrect.
The Civil code of the Russian Federation establishes a simple (non-exclusive) license that allows several publishers to publish an article without its processing. The publication of article in several editions — this is one of the legal ways of realization of the rights of the author (copyright holder) on a wide publication of a work.
