Bill C-32 and the Access Copyright Tariff

Tuesday, 03 August 2010

On July 14th I gave a public lecture sponsored by the Faculty of Information & Media Studies at UWO, entitled "Bill C-32 and the Access Copyright Tariff: Double Trouble for Educators and Students."

The overhead presentation and audio files of the lecture are now available online at the Western Library's digital depository at http://ir.lib.uwo.ca/fimspres/4/. The video has also been posted on Western's YouTube Channel .

Howard Knopf has also posted a very compelling analysis of the proposed tariff (the deadline for objections is Wednesday, August 11th). The Canadian Library Association has also posted its objections to the tariff and its brief on Bill C-32 .

I am an Associate Professor at the University of Western Ontario jointly appointed to the Faculty of Law and the Faculty of Information and Media Studies (FIMS).

Before coming to Western, I was a law librarian at the Boalt Hall Law Library at the University of California at Berkeley and before that I was in private law practice in California. My doctoral work in the Department of Information Studies at UCLA focused on information policy issues.

I am currently a Network Investigator and Theme Leader with the GRAND NCE and also serve on the Librarians Committee of the Canadian Association of University Teachers.
