NB: Copyright of third parties and its misuse or infringement by students and staff are becoming increasingly problematic at the University. You are reminded that the University respects copyright of third-party material and each year spends substantial amounts on licence fees in order to legally obtain access to electronic sources of academic material. We therefore urge you to familiarise yourselves with the copyright which might exist on electronic material as well as the rules on 'fair use' of electronic material (which includes but is not limited to audio-visual material such as films, videos, music, as well as academic material, internet, e-mail, Webstudies and PowerPoint class notes). In this regard you are also referred to paragraph 2.2.2 of the Electronic Communication Policy. The University's copyright clearance administrator can also be contacted at +27 21 808 2992.
