Copyright Review of Course Materials - Spring/Summer 2017


All course instructors whose course materials for Spring/Summer 2017 are subject to copyright review (as outlined below) are reminded to submit a Copyright Review Request Form for those readings and related materials for each such course to copyright@ualberta.ca as soon as possible.


Given that there may be materials that require separate licences or permissions for the intended use, please provide as much lead-time as possible when submitting your Copyright Review Request Form (we normally recommend 6-8 weeks).

Please note that the following course materials are subject to copyright review:

a) all course materials to be distributed in print format that are reproduced from a copyright-protected source publication; and


b) course materials that are to be distributed in electronic format where the intended selection is not within the ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ Fair Dealing Guidelines or where there are other indicators that permission to distribute the selection is required (e.g., e-licence terms which do not allow for the proposed use).


Additional details are available on this website.

The submission requirements for the copyright review of course materials for Spring/Summer 2017 have not changed from what has been in place for recent academic terms. However, please note that there is now a new Use of Copyright Material Procedure (UAPPOL), along with a new "" that formalize and clarify these practices.
