Happy Commonwealth Day (March 12, 2007)!
Copyright law plays an important role in education, because it governs
how knowledge is disseminated and used. Recognizing the importance of
keeping the gates of learning wide open in our information society,
the Commonwealth of Learning has been working with a group of experts
to address copyright issues.
This group recently developed a copyright law checklist, which will help
individuals and institutions gain a better understanding of how
intellectual property affects education and what countries can do to
increase access to education of quality at all levels.
