Education and Training
Consider attending a Copyright Clinic Drop-in Session, held each Thursday, 11:30 am - 12:30 pm in the Teaching and Learning Building, East Wing, Room 10-2608.
Staff of the copyright office will be available to help you with your copyright questions one-on-one. Bring your course lists, websites, questions, or other work you need copyright assistance with. Take-away quick references and UNBC copyright guidelines will be available. This is informal, just come by the clinic when you wish.
We also offer a more in-depth Copyright in the Classroom session approximately once a month. This session is designed to update staff and faculty on current copyright requirements and guidelines in place at UNBC. We discuss the changes in the Canadian Copyright Act and how those changes impact your work. We also provide an overview of "Fair Dealing" and review UNBC's Guidelines that have been put in place to ensure our academic and research community remains copyright-compliant.
