Orphan Works Situation Under Canadian Copyright Act
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This article examines the orphan works solution under the Canadian Copyright Act. This article introduces the type of solution adopted by the Canadian Copyright Act. The author undertake a qualitative approach to a thorough investigation that discloses that Canada has adopted centrally granted licensing model which enables a public body to issue licenses for users of orphan works. The author also revealed that under the Canadian system a prospective user is required to carry out a reasonably diligent search prior to using orphan works. It is understood that the type of solution adopted by the Canadian law may not function well at the moment, due to technological advancements that allow public libraries and other public institutions to digitise the whole collections that they own. However, compulsory licenses model could be considered a barrier before such institutions to have all their collections digitised, therefore, it is preferred for the Canadian law to adopt extended collective licenses model in addition to the compulsory licensing model. Keywords: orphan works, centrally granted licenses, license, section 77. DOI: 10.7176/JLPG/95-12 Publication date: March 31 st 2020

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
