Library supports educators to address copyright risks during Brightspace 2.0 migration
Many educators share third-party materials via Brightspace that are protected by copyright. TU Delft annually pays through the national Easy Access Agreement for the use of part of this material. Not all educators are aware of this and sometimes unknowingly infringe copyright by using sources outside this agreement. Unfortunately, this leads to unnecessary costs and risks for the university. The Brightspace 2.0 migration: the perfect moment to get a grip on copyright Starting mid-April, Teaching Support will begin the migration to Brightspace 2.0. The Library and Teaching Support see this transition as an excellent opportunity to gain more control over financial and legal risks related to copyrighted materials. Lectures have an important role in preventing these unnecessary costs and penalties by checking files and removing or replacing infringing material if necessary. Although carrying out this activity is not always seen as pleasant, careful handling of copyright contributes to ethical and professional conduct and thus to the quality of education within TU Delft. What is expected of educators? The migration is the perfect moment to review your course content critically. Check whether all materials in Brightspace – for both the current and upcoming academic year – comply with copyright laws and regulations. Visit the CopyrightCheck intranet site and read more about uploading files in Brightspace . Did you know that many issues can be prevented by: Using links instead of uploads whenever possible, and always linking to legal sources. Upload only materials with permission from the copyright holder. Always add a reference. What does the CopyrightCheck team do? At the same time, the Library CopyrightCheck-team supports this process by conducting a comprehensive check on uploaded materials, with extra attention for PDFs larger than forty pages. These are infringing if you upload and share them with students in Brightspace without permission from the copyright holder. The results of this check are shared with course managers, along with the request to resolve copyright issues. This gives course managers and managers a clear picture of potential risks, helping us ensure that all materials in Brightspace 2.0 comply with copyright laws and regulations. Questions? Visit our CopyrightCheck intranet site to learn more about uploading files in Brightspace. Do you have any questions or want to contact the CopyrightCheck team? Book a consultation via MS booking or email us for advice at copyrightcheck-lib@tudelft.nl .](https://www.tudelft.nl/en/2026/library/library-supports-educators-to-address-copyright-risks-during-brightspace-20-migration)
