Subject: [Gs-suppstaff-contacts] "Copyright" day and evening sessions
This message has been sent on behalf of Juliette Nadeau.
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.
