by Martha Blouw 09 Feb '11

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. *_Fort Garry session _* COPYRIGHT AND YOUR THESIS Thursday, February 24, 2011 1:00 pm -- 2:30 pm St. John's Schultz Lecture Theatre *__* *_Bannatyne session _* COPYRIGHT AND YOUR THESIS Monday, February 28, 2011 11:00 am -- 12:30 pm Theatre C, Basic Medical Sciences Bldg *_Online evening session _* COPYRIGHT AND YOUR THESIS Wednesday, March 23, 2011 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm Central Standard Time (CST) Join this session from your home or the office.
