Key issues to look at with Copyright

  •  Reproduction – Photocopying, scanning
  •  Communication – Faxing, emailing, posting on web etc
  • Statute of Limitations – 6 years in Australia, from the time an infringement is uncovered, for someone to take a legal action against your business within that period
  • How long copyright lasts for – A life and 70 years
  • Substantial part – Not about the quantity of works it is about the quality, could be a paragraph, 6 lines from a full text, a graph or a table
  • Moral rights – right to attribute as well as economic right
