The Copyright Directive created a solution for cultural heritage institutions to be able to share out of commerce works online. This addresses the 20th century blackhole and has the potential to shed light on thousands and millions of items that copyright has been keeping in the shadows. It provides an opportunity to contribute more data to the Common Data Space for Cultural Heritage, and for online audiences to enjoy heritage that is otherwise locked away.
However, some challenges stand in the way. There is a lack of awareness around the existence of this new solution and insufficient knowledge on the legal and practical details.
Join this session to find out more about the Copyright Directive. Hear in simple terms what this new solution is about and how it has been used across the EU, and discover capacity building resources that the Europeana Out of Commerce Works Working Group has created to support the sector in shedding light on thousands and millions of out of commerce works for their online audiences.
