From Fair Dealing to Fair Use: How Universities Have Adapted to the Changing Copyright Landscape in Canada

Abstract

<p>[From introduction]: “The first half of this chapter provides a synopsis of the major legislative, jurisprudential, and policy changes that have had an impact on higher education in Canada over the past ten years, with a focus on how these changes have transformed the way that copyright is managed in higher education. The second half focuses on the role that libraries have played in this management, as Canadian universities and colleges have frequently turned to their libraries for help with navigating—and managing—this new copyright landscape. Finally, the chapter concludes with a few thoughts about the future of copyright management in higher education in Canada as institutions determine paths forward in the aftermath of the Access Copyright v. York case.”</p>
