2 SEEDI, Zagreb, May 18th, 20112 eEurope 2002 Action Plan “create a coordination mechanism for digitization programs across member States”

3 SEEDI, Zagreb, May 18th, 20113 Obstacles to mass digitization cost use of inappropriate technologies and inadequate standards, lack of synergy between cultural and technological programmes and lack of consistency in approaches to IP rights.

4 SEEDI, Zagreb, May 18th, 20114 InfoSoc Directive (2001) Green paper Copyright in the Knowledge Economy (2008) IFLA, EBLIDA, eIFL Association of European Research Libraries (LIBER) Copyright as an obstacle

5 SEEDI, Zagreb, May 18th, 20115 Copyright as an obstacle The overall opinion seems to prevail that present copyright laws in the European countries have not been amended to enable libraries and archives to operate efficiently and adequately in the global digital environment.

6 SEEDI, Zagreb, May 18th, 20116 Why copyright clearance? digitization is act of reproduction and communication to the public & making available to the public national copyright laws require the author's permission for all these acts if the work is protected

7 SEEDI, Zagreb, May 18th, 20117 Digitization of cultural heritage in Croatia in the late 1990' - sporadic initiatives in 2006 - an encompassing programme funded by the Ministry of Culture Croatian Cultural Heritage Portal http://www.kultura.hr in the late 1990' - sporadic initiatives in 2006 - an encompassing programme funded by the Ministry of Culture Croatian Cultural Heritage Portal http://www.kultura.hr in the late 1990' - sporadic initiatives in 2006 - an encompassing programme funded by the Ministry of Culture Croatian Cultural Heritage Portal http://www.kultura.hr

11 SEEDI, Zagreb, May 18th, 201111 Conclusions Differences in approach between institutions some consider a digital copy to be a preservation copy some consider themselves as publishers of new copies

12 SEEDI, Zagreb, May 18th, 201112 Exceptions and limitations enumerated in the InfoSoc Directive 2001, they are different in different national copyright laws, libraries can act due to these exceptions and limitations, possible solution are mandatory exceptions for libraries and similar institutions. another possible solution is extended collective licensing

13 SEEDI, Zagreb, May 18th, 201113 Bide, Oppenheim and Ramsden (1997) discuss the need for "one-stop shop" (a central agency) for the clearance of digitization rights
