The School of Continuing Studies at the University of Toronto is offering
the following four copyright courses this fall:

*Copyright**: An Overview* is offered 13 October 2017

This course explains how copyright law works and presents the copyright
rules (including the 2012 amendments and relevant case law) that determine
duration and ownership of copyright and the respective rights of copyright
owners and users of copyrighted material (including fair dealing and the
exceptions for libraries, archives, and museums).

*Copyright** in Images* (27 October 2017)

Canada's Copyright Act places paintings, drawings, photographs, maps, and
architectural plans in the category of “artistic works,” but they are not
all subject to the same copyright rules. The 2012 amendments to the
Copyright Act affected the provisions relating to photographs and the
operation of copyright in the digital environment. This course presents the
copyright rules (including the recent amendments and relevant case law)
that apply specifically to “artistic works”. The course concludes with a
case study that gives participants an opportunity to apply the rules.

*Copyright** in Audiovisual Materials* (24 November 2017)

Applying copyright law to audio visual materials is particularly
challenging. This course will help you understand the complex rules and
rights involved. You'll explore the rules that apply to sound recordings
and moving images, including copyright ownership, the duration of copyright,
exclusive rights of owners, and exceptions that apply to libraries,
archives, and museums.

*Copyright** & Permissions: Reproduction & Reuse of Archival Materials* (8
December 2017)

This one-day course explores why some institutions try to control the use
of archival holdings, even with no copyright interests to protect and
little likelihood of effective policing. You’ll learn to distinguish
between copyright issues and other reasons for controlling reuse, and to
identify various issues to consider when developing reproduction and
permission policies that are consistent both with the law and an
institution's ethical practice, financial situation and mission.
