LexisNexis South Africa is mindful of the significant challenges being faced by the communities we serve, as we confront a common enemy in the form of the COVID-19 pandemic. We wish to reassure the student community that we do indeed understand its plight and are keen to minimise the impact of COVID-19 on studies. We have also implemented a number of measures to provide relief and support to customers, NGOs, government and employees over this period. We became aware of a copyright infringement incident involving a group of university students and would like to place on record that the matter is currently under internal investigation. We are in touch with the university and this matter is currently under investigation by them as well. Copyright infringement remains against the law – whatever the circumstances – and the ******** reproduction of such material cannot be condoned for many reasons, including the loss of income for authors who invest much effort, IP and time into writing these books. It also has a detrimental effect on the entire value chain involved in the process of creating a product like this and bringing it to market. Over time, authors would stop writing these books as it would not be a viable use of their time and effort, and it would be our students who are negatively affected as a result. We call upon students to please act responsibly as they prepare to become the young professionals of this country. Regards Neliswa Mncube GM: Corporate Communications & Brand
