As a result, they operate in an environment where information is often under the control of corporate interests and other nations. For instance, Canadian scholarly communication is affected by American legislation (e.g. The USA PATRTIOT Act) and governmental rulings (e.g. rulings of the Office of Foreign Asset Controls). While some discussion has taken place, there is an overall lack of a national dialogue on how to ameliorate this situation. There is also evidence that access to Canadian digital content within Canada is selective.engAttribution Non-Commercial No Derivatives 3.0 Unportedhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/Library & Information Sciencescholarly communicationglobalizationCanadian intellectual sovereigntyUSA PATRIOT ActOFACOffice of Foreign Asset Controlsacademic librariesuniversity librariesbook part10.11575/PRISM/29728
