theory of copyright
Theberge
 (2002)
Excessive control by holders of copyrights
 and other forms of intellectual property may
unduly limit the ability of the public domain to
     incorporate and embellish creative
   innovation in the long-term interests of
    society as a whole, or create practical
       obstacles to proper utilization.
cch
(2004)
the fair dealing exception is perhaps more
properly understood as an integral part of the
Copyright Act than simply a defence. Any act
   falling within the fair dealing exception will
not be an infringement of copyright. The fair
   dealing exception, like other exceptions in
the Copyright Act, is a users right. In order
 to maintain the proper balance between the
      rights of a copyright owner and users
        interests, it must not be interpreted
                     restrictively.
Robertson
 (2006)
The public interest is particularly significant
    in the context of archived newspapers.
 These materials are a primary resource for
  teachers, students, writers, reporters, and
 researchers. It is this interest that hangs in
the balance between the competing rights of
 the two groups of creators in this case, the
          authors and the publishers.
application of copyright
cch
(2004)
The fair dealing exception under s. 29
   is open to those who can show that
  their dealings with a copyrighted work
   were for the purpose of research or
    private study. Research must be
  given a large and liberal interpretation
 in order to ensure that users rights are
not unduly constrained. I agree with the
   Court of Appeal that research is not
   limited to non-commercial or private
                 contexts.
The amount taken may also be more or
less fair depending on the purpose. For
example, for the purpose of research or
   private study, it may be essential to
  copy an entire academic article or an
          entire judicial decision.
Persons or institutions relying on the s.
   29 fair dealing exception need only
    prove that their own dealings with
copyrighted works were for the purpose
 of research or private study and were
     fair. They may do this either by
  showing that their own practices and
 policies were research-based and fair,
     or by showing that all individual
dealings with the materials were in fact
         research-based and fair.
