The Faculty of Graduate Studies and the UM Libraries encourage you to attend an information session about copyright and your thesis.

Graduate students who incorporate a substantial portion of a copyrighted work or a complete copyrighted work such as a journal article, photograph, map or figure 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 and your thesis, when copyright permission is required, how to get permission, modifying a copyrighted work, how to post your electronic thesis to MSpace, 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.
