How can an organisation become an institution assisting persons with a print disability and take advantage of the statutory licence?
An ‘educational institution’, which is defined very broadly under the Copyright Act, automatically falls within the scope of the statutory licence. This covers primary, secondary and tertiary levels of education, professional and vocational training, adult, continuing, correspondence and external education. Other organisations, including teaching hospitals and teacher educations centres, must be subject to a declaration by the Federal Attorney-General under subsection 10A(l)(c) of the Copyright Act. An organisation wanting to be considered for such a declaration should apply to the Attorney-General.
