Copying or scanning from books or journals for hand-outs or SLATE uploads? Want to make sure you are being fair to copyright holders? Copyright Services can give you friendly advice on keeping within Sheridan’s Fair Dealing Guidelines and observing Canada’s copyright law. Contact Patricia Buckley, Sheridan’s Copyright Coordinator, to set up a consultation.
Have you heard? Sheridan College is leaving Access Copyright on August 31, 2014. Like many other Canadian colleges and universities we’re relying on the Fair Dealing Guidelines to keep within copyright laws and ensure we’re fair to copyright holders. Now is the time to check that materials you are using meet the our Guidelines.
Copyright answers are ALWAYS available and there are three easy ways to get them:
- Contact Patricia Buckley, Sheridan’s Copyright Coordinator. (Find her in the Trafalgar campus library; call X 2766; or e-mail patricia.buckley@sheridancollege.ca.)
- Check out the Sheridan College Copyright Guidelines for Professors where you’ll find Sheridan’s Fair Dealing Guidelines. (Look for the links on Access Sheridan, the Library page, and on SLATE.)
- Watch and learn with the Copy Right at Sheridan College video course. Short, fun, and informative, you can find these videos on the Copy Right at Sheridan College virtual community in your SLATE course listings. Search for it on SLATE (search for “Copy Right at Sheridan College – 123976_VC”) or, once you’re logged into SLATE, click on this link, Homepage – Copy Right at Sheridan College, to be taken directly there.
