As a teacher, you must report the teaching material used. AU has a copying agreement with Copydan Writing, which means that you can legally copy and use excerpts from all over the world's published text and sheet music materials, both printed and digital material from Danish and foreign publications.
You must send your literature lists to copydan@cc.au.dk, and you are welcome to send the lists continuously. We collect the lists and send them twice a year on 1 March or 1 October to Copydan Writing.
CopyDan accepts many different formats - including the submission of whole semester plans, as long as the literature references are highlighted and contain the necessary information.
You also can send the lists in one of the following ways:
You have quite a bit of literature for each course, which you prefer to type into a Word form
If you prefer to enter titles into a Word document, download and use one of the templates in the right margin. Complete and send the form to copydan@cc.au.dk.
You have already created a bibliography for each course, which is complete and ready to be sent
Send the finished bibliography to copydan@cc.au.dk. However, you should ensure that all information that Copydan requires is on your list.
See here on the right which information your list must contain if you use your own version.

Finding relevant course material online can be quick and easy, while it can be much more difficult to assess whether or not you may share this material with your students.
If you would like to hand out copies or prints, make printed compendia or scan material for your students, the rules that apply are dependent on the original material.
If you want to use images during teaching, you need to be aware of the agreement between AU and Copydan (Visual).
When you make use of video clips during lectures, you need to be aware not only of the conditions placed by the individual video service you are using, but also of the Copyright Act and the Personal Data Act.
Read how you can use radio and television broadcasts in your teaching - both your own recordings as well as content from Mediestream.
Aarhus University has entered into three agreements with Copydan, covering text, images and audiovisual (AV) material.
When you need to share materials with your students, use Brightspace rather than Dropbox, Facebook or e-mails.
