Abstract

The article discusses the impact of the 2012 Canadian Copyright Modernization Act on Canadian publishers of educational material. Topics include the expansion of the number of fair use situations to include education, parody and satire; comments from Erin Creasey, president of the education licensing organization Association of Canadian Publishers; and claims that the education exception has caused what publishers term a significant decrease in textbook orders from college bookstores.
