The Copyright Act includes exceptions that allow users to copy and share works in certain circumstances, without having to seek permission, or pay copyright fees. Fair dealing is the best-known, and the most used exception, as it’s available to anyone and allows copies to be made in a wide range of circumstances. The Fair Dealing Policy for Universities describes how fair dealing may be used in non-profit universities.
