Confused by copyright? Need to brush up on your knowledge?
Join us for a session led by School of Law Lecturer Mitchell Longan focusing on the everyday application of copyright law.
We will cover a range of areas including:
- What is copyright? What types of works are covered? To what extent are you protected?
- How to register copyrights
- Licensing your work to others
- Using someone else’s copyrighted work – licensing vs fair dealing
- How to know if your copyright has been infringed
This workshop has been designed to be informative, practical, and accessible – there will be plenty of time for questions and conversation.
