OTHER WAYS YOU HAVE PERMISSION

• Fair dealing: Fair dealing allows some copying in certain circumstances, specifically for research, private study, news reporting, review or criticism. There is a two part test for fair dealing. It must be for one of the purposes stated above and it must be fair. You can get more information about fair dealing by visiting the Canadian Intellectual Property Office's (CIPO) website at www.cipo.gc.ca.

• The Public Domain: When copyright in a work expires, generally in Canada after the creator has been dead for 50 years, the work enters the public domain and you are free to use the work in any way you like. You can get more information about the public domain from CIPO or the Project Gutenberg website at www.gutenberg.org.

• The Creative Commons: The Creative Commons is a relatively new system that allows copyright owners to provide users with varying degrees of access to their works – by giving their advance permission in a creative commons licence. You can find out more about the Creative Commons at www.creativecommons.ca .
