what can be done?
we have iden8fied four approaches:• rights clearance by the cultural heritage insEtuEons themselves
• deals with collec8ve rights management organiza8ons
• the opt out approach (youtube)• change the law (addiEonal exempEons & limitaEons for cultural heritage insEtuEons)
opEon number 2: digit©e
in 2008 the working group digit©e was established. members are:• the legal commiLee of FOBID (the dutch library forum) represenEng the culturale heritage insEtuEons.
• VOI©E, the umbrella organisaEon represenEng 27(!!) collecEve rights management bodies in the Netherlands.
• VOI©E will set up a unified desk that will handle digiEzaEon made by cultural heritage insEtuEons
general procedure:
• Cultural heritage organisaEons register a collecEon they want to digiEze providing informaEon about the collecEon (composiEon, size, type, age, etc...)
• The digit©e desk will review the collecEon and give ‘permission’ to digiEze (by providing a warranty) ‐ free of charge
• In addiEon they can also grant a license for online publicaEon of the collecEon ‐ for a charge.
permission for digiEzaEon
• A^er consent has been given, the works may be digiEsed without further specific consent being required for each parEcular one of them;
• The works may be made available on the premises of the insEtuEon concerned for the purposes of teaching, research, and private study;
• The “reasonable payment” that is required will in general amount to EUR 0 if the condiEons for digiEzaEon have been met
condiEons for digiEzaEon (1):
• The insEtuEon is a publicly accessible not for profit library, museum, or archive
• Only works forming part of the insEtuEon’s collecEon will be digiEsed;
• The works to be digiEsed form part of the Dutch cultural heritage;
• The works to be digiEsed have been lawfully acquired by the insEtuEon;
condiEons for digiEzaEon (1):
• To the best knowledge of the insEtuEon, the works to be digiEsed are no longer commercially available;
• the rights regarding the works to be digiEsed are vested in Dutch right holders or in right holders who can be represented by a Dutch collecEng society;
• It is difficult for the insEtuEon to contact individual right holders;
• works need to be registered and authors need to be offered the ability to opt out.
digit©e ‐ criEcism
• do the collecEve rights organisaEons have the mandate/representaEon to give permission, provide a warranty.
• unclear scope of the licenses for online use (length of validity).
• unclear mechanisms for determining the costs of licenses for online use.
• too restricEve in terms of works to be useful for most large digiEzaEon projects.
