Where to for copyright in 2015?  

With a plethora of recommendations and reviews outstanding, the Attorney-General’s commitment to an overhaul of the Copyright Act 1968 is well timed.  The ADA forum kicks off the year exploring many of the current legal gaps and innovative solutions in the world of copyright.  From the challenges of making WWI materials accessible to regional areas through to digital publishing and open licencing, the ADA Forum remains the premier user-focused event discussing the changing copyright landscape in Australia.
