A conference at the University of Windsor May 18 and 19 will focus on issues surrounding copyright user rights and regulations from an international, multi-jurisdictional and interdisciplinary perspective.

Registration is now open for the Copyright User Rights and Access to Justice Symposium. Speakers will discuss human rights, property, contracts, remedies, social justice and access to justice theories in considering:

• how international conventions address — or fail to address — the rights and interests of users;
• how copyright law and policy have historically been tied to access to learning and what light might this shed on the present;
• the extent to which copyright law facilitates or hampers its most commonly stated objective to incent the creation and dissemination of copyright works; and
• what remedies or reform need to be put in place.
