These introductory workshops will equip you with important information skills. They are intended for students that have not had a lot of experience with academic research at university. The world of scholarly information can be intimidating, so why not let your librarians introduce you to the basics?

What’s more, you will get a half-credit towards your Co-Curricular Learning (CCL) requirement.

Copyright basics: How much can I copy?
  How much is copying is too much? Is the 10% rule correct? What’s the big deal using copyrighted works? More importantly, how does it affect you or the copyright owner?

The concept of copyright may seem difficult to grasp. However, through understanding the basic concepts and knowing where to find the information, you will learn to become a responsible user of copyrighted materials.

This workshop is not intended as legal advice but helps you to understand the basics of copyright.
