This webpage makes copyright easy
Copyright can be confusing, and like so many aspects of the law, not understanding it is not an excuse if you end up breaking the rules! But don’t worry – we’ve got you covered with easy, accessible copyright information in the library.
Our Copyright webpage demystifies this complicated subject by providing you with user-friendly basics, research and teaching considerations, as well as help in finding copyright-free resources. The website will help you make better decisions about using and creating material for your study, research or teaching.
We answer all of your commonly asked questions, including:
- What is copyright?
- Who owns it, and how long does it last?
- How do I get permission to use copyright-protected content?
- How do I cite or attribute works?
We also have specialised content for academics and researchers, including considerations you need to make in your teaching materials, thesis and publishing your research.
If you have any questions about the content, please contact the Copyright Office.
