Europeana´s Public Domain Charter
‣Europeana, Europe’s digital library, museum and archive, belongs to the public and must represent the public interest.
‣The Public Domain is the material from which society derives knowledge and fashions new cultural works.
‣Having a healthy and thriving Public Domain is essential to the social and economic well-being of society.
‣Digitisation of Public Domain content does not create new rights over it: works that are in the Public Domain in analogue form continue to be in the Public Domain once they have been digitised.
Operational Consequences of the Charter
• Public Domain Icon or Kitemark
• Plans to label the rights associated with a digitised item very clearly so that they are understood by Europeana’s users, who will be able to exclude content from their results that requires payment or doesn't comply with the Public Domain Charter.
• Rights labelling will become a requirement when submitting content to Europeana by the end of this year.
EUROPEANA PRODUCT AND SERVICE PLAN 2010
