Copyright: The Card Game, Canadian Edition, Version 2.0

Abstract

The purpose of this game is to introduce information professionals to copyright law through five suits: Works and Other Subject-Matter, Duration, Usages, Licences, and Exceptions. It includes a printable deck of cards (available in PDF and PowerPoint) and slides to host the game. Instructions can be found in the slide notes. Starting with a warm-up quiz, it is played over six rounds, one for each suit, plus a final round that brings it all together.
