The third edition of Copyright Matters!,
a copyright guideline document for the Canadian education community
backed by government ministers of education, school boards, and the
Canadian Teachers' Federation, has been released. This edition accounts
for recent court and legislative
changes, offering guidance that is far more consistent with the law than
the earlier editions. Indeed, the fair dealing guidelines provide
further confirmation of the widespread agreement throughout the Canadian
education sector on the
implications of the Supreme Court of Canada copyright decisions and make
it increasingly difficult to justify payments under the Access
Copyright licence.
