Digital technologies give collecting institutions new ways to promote public access to their collections through online availability. However, in many situations copyright law exposes them to legal liability if they do so. Through collaboration with ten leading cultural organisations, this project investigates current and emerging ways of publicly using digital collections and managing copyright and the interests of creators. Legal and empirical research across collecting institutions, creators and peak sector bodies will produce detailed policy recommendations about copyright law and best practice within the sector. The projects independent empirical analysis will enhance future public policy about digital copyright.
