Jason Winders, "No renewal for current Access Copyright deal," Western News, 10 June, 2013. "But the copyright landscape has changed drastically since the deal was first struck 16 months ago. Supreme Court of Canada handed down a series of copyright- and technology-related rulings in June 2012, including, most interestingly for educational institutions, one that erased the distinction between student and instructor copying of copyrighted work. Previously, only student copying was considered fair dealing. Also, the Copyright Modernization Act (Bill C-11), passed on June 29, 2012, expanded the definition of ‘fair dealing’ to include education alongside research, private study, criticism and review. That means educational entities are not tied to the strict royalty landscape for use of materials for educational purposes." With thanks to David Fiander
