Copyright: For Course Packs

This is a guide to understanding your rights and responsibilities, in relation to copyright, as a member of the Loyalist College community.

Copyright and Course packs

Course packs must be sent to the library for approval prior to being sent to Xerox for copying. The Copyright Technician will determine if each item in the course pack adheres to the Fair Dealing guidelines.  

When preparing the course pack please include:

-A completed course pack requisition signed by the dean
-A citation for each article
-Previously approved material containing a copyright label

Digital course packs are essentially the same as printed course packs, but are posted to Canvas. Digital course packs must also be sent to the library for approval. The Copyright Technician will determine if each item in the course pack adheres to the  Fair Dealing guidelines.  Once fully approved the course pack will be returned to the sender who will be responsible for scanning and uploading the material to Canvas. 

When preparing a digital course pack please include:

-A completed digital course pack requisition form signed by the dean
-A citation for each article
-Previously approved material containing a copyright label

Please Note!

We recommend submitting all course packs for copyright clearance at least six weeks ahead of time. If you have questions or concerns, please contact Vanessa Lee.
