Searching for meaning in the Copyright Act review: A qualitative analysis of stakeholder briefs

This presentation will build on our presentation at last year’s ABC conference on our investigation into language and discourse in the Copyright Act review. We will provide updates on our process and workflow, including our decision to revise our methodological approach and redesign our coding schema, and how we addressed briefs with few to no clear recommendations. We will share some findings now that we have completed coding all of the submitted briefs, as well as some comparisons between the recommendations submitted by stakeholders and the recommendations made in the INDU Committee’s resulting report.
