http://www.ipd.gov.hk/eng/intellectual_property/copyright/edu_guide.pdf.What a pity to see such a document in a place full of all pirated copies of CD(s), DVD(s) and other published material you name it! Teachers are prone to copy materials from a wide range of sources and they are thinking it’s alright to do so as there is no one can come up and tell them ..Hey, no, you’re not allowed to copy! It’s illegal by law! I’m not really sure if there is any law to allow us as a teacher to copy from different sources without crossing the red light or what so called copyright.
Apparently this document is trying to draw the red line which on one dares to cross, otherwise the person considered to be a violator of such law and liable to prosecution in one way or another. What I am not sure about whether this new copyrights law contradicts or overrides the already established photocopying law! It’s time to find I would guess!
