From: gs-suppstaff-contacts-bounces@lists.umanitoba.ca [mailto:gs-suppstaff-contacts-bounces@lists.umanitoba.ca] On Behalf Of Rebecca Tataryn Sent: February-11-13 10:03 AM To: Rebecca Tataryn Cc: Juliette Nadeau Subject: [Gs-suppstaff-contacts] "Copyright" Day and Evening Sessions for Graduate Students

[University of Manitoba Faculty of Graduate Studies] ________________________________

The Faculty of Graduate Studies and the Copyright Office encourage you to attend an information session about copyright.

Did you know that in many cases, incorporating copyrighted content into a thesis requires permission from the copyright holder? For example, including a complete copyrighted work such as a photograph, map, diagram or figure, or a substantial amount of text, requires permission to do so. Adapting a work requires permission as well. Permission is needed whether the copyrighted material came from the Web, a book, a journal or a government source. Attend an information session to find out what you need to know about copyright while preparing your thesis - when permission is needed, how to get permission, how to find free resources, the pertinent details of the Copyright Act, 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.
