s 200AB: Flexible Dealing
• Rely on flexible dealing when no statutory licence (Part VA or Part VB) or free use exception (s 28) applies to your use.
• Teachers may copy videos (eg YouTube) and sound recordings (eg podcasts, music) under flexible dealing subject to certain requirements.
• Flexible dealing will not apply where it is possible to purchase a similar teaching resource
• A free exception – no fees are paid. See information sheet:
“The New Flexible Dealing Exception – What am I allowed to do?”:http://www.smartcopying.edu.au/scw/go/pid/542
S 200AB: Flexible Dealing
1. Is my use covered by a statutory licence or exception?
2. Am I using this for giving educational instruction?
3. Am I only using what I need for educational instruction?
4. Can I purchase the format I need?
5. Will my use unreasonably prejudice the copyright owner?
37
Flexible Dealing Dos and Don’ts
• Do not use pirated material.
• ‘Just in case’ format shifting is not permitted:• Schools cannot make ‘back up’ copies of resources ‘in case’ the
original is destroyed.
• Schools are not allowed to format shift their whole library or collection (eg. from video tape to DVD or a content management system) 'just in case' it will be useful later on. Any format shifting needs to be done for the purpose of giving educational instruction in the near future.
See information sheets:
“Flexible Dealing and the Copyright Amendment Act 2006 – What am I allowed to do?” http://www.smartcopying.edu.au/scw/go/pid/542
“Format Shifting and the Copyright Amendment Act 2006: what am I allowed to do?”: http://www.smartcopying.edu.au/scw/go/pid/529

• Remove once no longer needed the s 200AB copy from the LMS, school intranet, class blog/wiki, portal or interactive media gallery as soon as practical, once no longer required for the class, homework or research task.
• Label s 200AB copies with words similar to:‘Copied under s200AB of the Copyright Act 1968’
See information sheet: “Flexible Dealing and the Copyright Amendment Act 2006 – What am I allowed to do?”

Can I format shift some music on a CD into MP3 format to upload to Moodle for classroom exercise?
Yes, a teacher can format shift music from CD to MP3 provided:
• It is not possible to purchase the music in digital format
• Access to the MP3 copy on Moodle is limited to those students who need to use the MP3 file for the classroom activity
• MP3 copy is archived as soon as practicable after it has been used for the classroom activity
41
My language department has just purchased an expensive language CD containing listening and speaking exercises for students. Can the school make a back up copy of this CD in case it gets damaged?
A school cannot make a ‘back-up’ copy of the CD because the CD is still available for purchase.
It is a good idea to ask the publisher/distributor of the CD for their permission to make a ‘back up’ copy.
If they refuse, the school will need to purchase two copies and archive one as the ‘master’ in case the other gets damaged.
42
My library contains several programs recorded on VHS pre-1990. Can I format shift these VHS tapes into digital format to store on ClickView?
Pre 1990 recordings are not covered by Part VA. Therefore, the school will need to rely on s 200AB.
Can format shift under s 200AB where:
• The program is needed for educational instruction (teaching or preparation for teaching). Cannot do a mass format shift to create a digital library of these recordings.
• The program is not available for purchase in digital format.
43
iTunes
44
iTunes
• When buying content from the iTunes store, you must agree to the store’s Terms of Use.
• Terms state that iTunes products can only be used for: ‘personal, non commercial use’.
• This expression may not include ‘educational use’.
45
iTunes
• We just don’t know whether the iTunes contract prohibits the educational use of content purchased from iTunes.
• There is a risk that the school might be said to be in breach of contract if its plays or copies content purchased from itunes.
• However, sections 200AB and 28 allow teachers to use sound recordings and video for educational purposes without having to seek the permission of the copyright owner.
46
iTunes
You will need to find out whether your school has decided to:
• rely on the Copyright Act exceptions, or
• avoid using content purchased from iTunes due to the iTunes contract
