Copyright in A-V: Sound Recordings and Moving Images  
<http://www.plc.ischool.utoronto.ca/copyright.AV.asp>

The application of copyright law to audio-visual materials is 
particularly challenging. The Copyright Act puts sound recordings and 
moving image materials into two different categories that are subject to 
very different rules. The rules are complex, and not always easy to 
understand or apply. Furthermore, rapid advances in digital and 
communications technologies have made it possible to store, copy, and 
transmit vast quantities of information more cheaply and quickly than 
ever before, and the application of copyright in the digital environment 
presents additional challenges

All corporations and organizations in Canada must comply with 
legislation concerning how they collect, use and disclose information 
about identifiable individuals and third parties. Public-sector 
institutions are also legally obligated to provide public right of 
access to their information resources. Ignorance of and/or failure to 
comply with legislative provisions concerning the use of these resources 
may expose an organization to financial, legal and public relations 
risks. This instructor-led online course discusses, in practical terms, 
best management and protection of personal and sensitive information as 
well as access to public-sector information. Participants are provided 
with knowledge and tools to ensure proper control over organizational 
information resources and compliance with legislative requirements.
This is a comprehensive course balancing text, online group discussions, 
and exercises that allow participants to practice what they're learning. 
Participants are provided with practical materials to use at their 
respective worksites, including access to information and privacy 
protection audit tools, sample forms, and sample compliance-related 
deliverables.
