CopyDan, the Danish rights holders´ association, has reached a new agreement with the Danish universities that makes copying and distributing copyrighted materials to students somewhat easier for lecturers. For instance, the new agreement stipulates that you may now copy and disseminate, whether digitally or in print and regardless of publication year, 20 % of a book or a journal volume, as long as the total number of pages does not exceed 50.

More information as well as the agreement itself is available from LibGuide – Ophavsret (in Danish only)

Please note, however, that the CopyDan agreement only applies to documents that are NOT available through the CBS library subscription databases. If you wish to leave a reading list for your students on CBS LEARN and the documents on that list are indeed available from a CBS Library database, you need to either create a database link to the full text document or simply provide a reference.

If you opt for the link version, please make sure that all links allow for smooth off-campus access. Check out CBSshare for a guide on how to do this, or contact Mette Bechmann directly.
