The Guide provides practical assistance in respect of licensing of OOCW, under Articles 8 ? 11 of the Copyright in the Digital Single Market (?DSM?) Directive and highlights the concerns held by rightholders regarding the implementation of the provisions. We trust this will assist you when preparing national implementation of the Directive. Many cultural heritage institutions (CHIs) are interested in digitising their collections and making those collections available online to the general public. When the collection includes copyright works, a means of identifying the copyright holders and clearing permission to include the work in the digitised collection is necessary. This is where collective management organisations (CMOs), such as IFRRO?s Reproduction Rights Organisation (RRO) members, can assist by developing licensing schemes for digitisation projects tailored for national circumstances. The Guide includes examples of current projects involving cooperation amongst CHIs, RROs and authors and publishers to make OOCW available in this way, to provide inspiration on the way forward. We very much hope that you will find this Guide, including our key suggestions for the successful licensing of future digitisation schemes, a useful source of information ahead of your national consultation with stakeholders, as foreseen under the Directive. Please do not hesitate to come back to us should you have any questions or comments. Best wishes for the coming holiday season and 2021. Yours sincerely, On behalf of Caroline Morgan Secretary General and Chief Executive [email protected] +32 2 234 62 60 (Central) ifrro The International Federation of Reproduction Rights Organisations Rue du Prince Royal 85-87, 1050 Brussels, Belgium http://www.ifrro.org/ -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by Twido MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
