Copyright clearance agreement statement

A message from the Vice-President, Academic and Provost

The University of Waterloo has decided not to sign the copyright license negotiated by Access Copyright and the Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada.

The university will work with its internal stakeholders to ensure copyright regulations are respected, required permissions are obtained, necessary costs are covered, and appropriate transparency and accountability exist.

Further information will be provided as more specific details are available. In the interim, should you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact Bruce Mitchell, Associate Provost, Resources, or Mark Haslett, University Librarian.
