Summary/Abstract: At the school religion lessons, audiovisual works may be presented as supplementary to the verbal communication of a catechist. According to the Polish author rights, there is no need for any consent if this is done for educational purposes and for the need of illustrating the provided content. This condition will certainly be fulfilled if the theme of audiovisual works will be in line with the religion lessons curriculum, approved by the Commission for Catechesis of the Polish Bishops’ Conference. The catechist may also make copies of audiovisual works for educational purposes and transfer them to pupils for their educational fair use.
