Presentations on the online event "Legal Issues in the Digitization of (Still) Copyrighted Materials"

This three-part event provides a basic overview of the topic, a report from archival practice, and an introduction to the EUIPO portal on out-of-print works. PDFs of the presentations and a recording of the practical report are available here:

Part 1: Legal foundations and licensing of unavailable works (PDFs of the presentations).

 

Part 2: Report from archival practice (recording of the presentation)

 

Part 3: EUIPO Out of Commerce Works Portal (PDF of the presentation)

 

Data-partner archives can present their descriptive information and digitized material in Archivportal-D online collections. This has many advantages for the participating archives:

Users receive a low-threshold entry into the search for archival material and completely new user groups are won over for working with archival material. Through subject classification, the archival material of one's own institution can be presented as thematically relevant - even if the holdings were not the original focus of the researcher. In this way, archival "treasures" that have received little attention up to now, as well as smaller and regional archives, are brought into focus.

Adding archival material to online collections

To add archival material to an online collection, the archival material needs to be linked to keywords from the specific collection. You can find out more about this as well as tips and tricks on keywording for archives using the example of our online collection "Weimar Republic" here:

DFG project "Thematic Access" and online collection "Weimar Republic"

The online collection "Weimar Republic" was developed within the framework of a DFG project on the design of thematic accesses in Archivportal-D. Within the framework of this project, an infrastructure and digital tools are being developed that can be used for portals on various topics. In two workshops, the results of the project work on the systematics and the keyword tool - currently in the development process - were discussed with the expert public.
