Copyright and Fair Dealing

Are you interested in learning more about how copyright applies to you as a researcher? If so, this workshop is for you!

In this workshop, you will learn how to:

• Understand the basics of copyright law and how it applies to articles and other works you hope to publish
• Seek and obtain permission from copyright owners when needed
• Use fair dealing and other exceptions to copy and share other people’s works for your publications
• Understand your choices for cIRcle, UBC’s institutional repository, and select a suitable open access license for your work
• Publish your thesis in a journal or book, and negotiate your publishing contract, and ensure that articles you have previously published are eligible for inclusion within future works you are planning to publish.

The workshop will be presented by a copyright librarian, who will provide you with practical tips and resources for your publishing journey. You will also have the opportunity to ask questions. If you have detailed questions, you can book a follow-up, one-on-one appointment with the copyright librarian. This workshop is suitable for graduate students, postdocs, and faculty.

This workshop qualifies for the Scholarly Research, Writing and Publishing Credential offered through the College of Graduate Studies.
