This message has been sent on behalf of Juliette Nadeau. ________________________________ Doug Barkman Faculty of Graduate Studies * 204.474.6172 ________________________________ The Faculty of Graduate Studies and the Copyright Office encourage you to attend an information session about copyright. Graduate students who incorporate a substantial portion of a copyrighted work or a complete copyrighted work such as a photograph, map, diagram, figure or journal article into their theses must have permission from the copyright holder to do so. Adapting a work or modifying a work requires permission as well. Permission is required whether the copyrighted material came from the Web, a book, a journal or a government source. Attend one information session to find out what you need to know while preparing your thesis - when permission is needed, how to get permission, using free resources, an overview on copyright law, fair dealing, and more.
Who would benefit from attending a session? - Graduate students writing or preparing to write their theses - Faculty and graduate chairs advising or supervising graduate students - Staff assisting graduate students with their theses.
