The licence allows copying of print and graphic works for educational purposes within limits. Providing copies (digial or hardcopy) beyond these limits is not authorised. Sheet music may also be copied within the copying limits. Copying under the Statutory licence does not include the reproduction of software, i.e. a computer program or application.
You can make as many hardcopies as you need for educational purposes eg. if there are 40 students in a subject you can make 40 hardcopies.
Copies may not be sold to students with the deliberate intention to make a profit.
Ensure that you provide a link to the online source of any third party copyright material in your presentations, even if the amount is insubstantial (i.e. less than 1% of the whole item). This includes extracts of text, images, artistic works, photographs, pictures, tables, charts etc. The source can be hyperlinked to, or placed underneath, the image or other reproduced work.
Always include a Warning Notice at the beginning of your presentation. This is particularly important if you're going to turn your PowerPoint into a PDF and make it available in iLearn.
Respect the copyright holder’s Moral Rights, and make sure that all sources of copyright material are properly acknowledged.
There are different provisions under the act for live streaming of lectures and for making a recording for viewing at a later date. Limitations on the amount (as per above) of copyright material that can be copied under the statutory licence must be observed.
In particular, it is important to include a complete reference to the works being used and include the Warning Notice at the beginning of the lecture.
Commercially produced DVDs can be shown in class but they must not be included in a recorded lecture. The copyright owner's permission is required to copy and communicate commercially produced DVDs. The recording must be paused, or stopped, whilst playing DVDs.
YouTube videos cannot be captured in lecture recordings for Mediasite. The recording must be paused, or stopped, whilst playing YouTube material.
An alternative is to place a link to the Youtube selection in iLearn.
Ensure the Warning Notice is displayed at the beginning of the lecture or as the first, or second, slide in your PowerPoint presentation.
Ensure the work being used is referenced correctly.

There are no marking requirements for photocopying. However it is good practice to mark the copies with the title of the work, author's name, publisher and date of publication (if known).
Staff may copy any amount of a work for inclusion in a test or exam question. Section 200 [s200] of the Australian Copyright Act, allows for the use of copyright works in examination papers during an exam period. Once the examination period has ended the copyright works must be removed.
Copyright works used within exams should be referenced, apart from where the exam question excludes referencing as the reference will reveal the answer to the exam question. This exception only applies during the exam period.
Before an exam can be posted online as a past exam the copyright works must either be registered with the Library via ereserve@bond.edu.au or permission must be sought from the copyright owner.
Staff may copy by handwriting any amount of a work for educational purposes.
Additional provisions apply if copying for students with a print disability ie vision impairment. Please contact the Manager, Scholarly Publications and Copyright if this situation applies.
