Does the “exam copying” exception apply to weekly assessments?

10.6.2009

Section 200 of the Act allows copying of copyright material such as text, images and notated music for an “examination”. The section, however, doesn’t include any definition of what constitutes an “examination”. In our view, the section is likely to cover any type of test designed to assess the progress of a student, including weekly assessments and take-home exams, but should not be relied upon when setting homework or when testing for aptitude rather than for achievement in a particular course.

If you miss a television program that you would like to have taped or have since damaged your copy, you may be able to get a copy from a resource centre. Screenrights also may be able to assist.
