Abstract

This article first examines Canadian copyright law as it pertains to distance education with a detailed review of literature, legislation and jurisprudence, including a comparison with influential law from the United States. Included in this analysis are the opinions of specialists and experts on distance education and copyright in the university environment, who were interviewed during this research. Based on the research findings, we have identified three distinct legislative outcomes. For each, we provide recommendations on how a university and other stakeholders might best protect their interests when confronted with any of these three possibilities.
