Does the fact that I have fee-paying students in my unit mean that I can’t use Part VB to reproduce secondary source materials?
To rely on Part VB of the Act, the material reproduced must be for the ‘educational purposes’ of Deakin. It must be available only to Deakin-enrolled students (whether fee-paying or not), not for students gaining a qualification from elsewhere. The problem arises where we sell a course to another institution, or open it up to non-enrolled students e.g. where we offer a course to a professional association as part of their staff development. In that case, we would have to apply for permission for the extracts previously quoted under Part VB.
