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 an information session for an overview on copyright law, fair dealing, when permission is required, how to get permission, using free resources, 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.
