paleonet Australian palaeos only...Palaeo papers copyright/meeting speakers



G'day all,
The Fossil Club of NSW has a rather rough website that
we are developing.
We would like to make available as PDF's some of the
old palaeo papers. 
Can someone give me some idea of copyright issues with
such publication. For example, does the copyright sit
with the author or the institution that published the
paper? There are so many rather obscure papers that
would be of interest to club members (and likely
others as well) that, if we could turn them into
electronic form, would be of great value.
Any help here would be appreciated.

Also, we are always looking for speakers at our
monthly meetings. We have had doctoral/masters
students present talks recently and would welcome any
input here in the interests of furthering the
education of some dedicated amateur palaeontologists.
Regards
Gary Holloway
(Recently elected as new President of Fossil Club of NSW)
