Yesterday Bill C-11 passed third reading and now moves on to the Senate for a multi-stage process structured similarly to the one just completed in the House of Commons.

A memo outlining the Spring 2012 Digital Readings Pilot Project was emailed to the faculty and sessional lists on June 15. If you did not receive this memo, or if you would like assistance in determining options for providing student access to course readings you plan to use in an upcoming course, please contact the University Copyright Advisor office.
As of today the University is covered by the model AUCC license for copying that was negotiated recently with Access Copyright. The license term is from January 1, 2011 to December 31, 2015.
The University upheld its Copyright Act obligations during our opt-out phase (September 1, 2011 to June 25, 2012) by obtaining required copying permissions independently. One difference in being covered by an institutional copying license, however, is that classroom handouts may now be made on campus. Formerly these were produced off-campus by a commercial printing partner. In general, day-to-day copying, including classroom handouts, must be limited to no more than 10% of a work, or, for example, a single chapter as long as the chapter is no more than 20% of the book.
If you have questions on how the University's institutional copying license may affect your desired uses of copyright-protected works, please contact the University Copyright Advisor at copyright@uleth.ca.
