Arrow National Libraries domain’s meeting
BnF Paris, March 30, 2010

2. Legal framework: projects of a national
law regarding the issue of orphan works.
Spanish Intellectual Property Laws currently in force are the
following:
1. Texto Refundido de la Ley de Propiedad Intelectual (RDL
1/1996), amended by
2. Ley 23/2006 de 7 de julio
There is no mention to orphan works

3. Legal framework: projects of a national
law regarding the issue of orphan works.
• There is an amendment to the last law proposed by a
Parlamentary Group to cover the legal emptiness, adding a
new article:
• Works considered as orphans, that is to say : those whose
rigth holders have not been found after a lawful research,
could be used without previous authorization, according to
legally-stablished-conditions

4. Legal framework: projects of a national law
regarding the issue of orphan works.
In the meantime, the law includes some recommendations
regarding the use of orphan works by a library:
If there is a doubt, not to use these works
Before using them, the library has to prove that a diligent
search has been performed, including the obtaining of a
certification of the Intellectual Property Register stating that
the work has not been registered (although such register is not
compulsory for a work to be protected)
CEDRO concedes a license for reproduction which nowadays
acts as a temporary solution to the orphan works issue

5. Legal framework: Seminario de Directores
Generales y Expertos sobre Digitalización del Material
Cultural "Bibliotecas digitales y derecho de autor"
Date: 12 to 14-04-2010
Place:
Biblioteca Nacional. Madrid
Content:
The seminar will take place on 12th, 13th and 14th of April. The
aim is to consider and analyse the process of digitation of culture
and the role it plays in the knowledge society. One of the main
elements of analysis will be The European Digital Library and its
influence in the rest of member Estates.

6. Presentation of the different stakeholders of
the book value chain and interconnections
between local BIPs, RROs and NL
RRO: CEDRO -Centro Español de Derechos Reprográficos
The Centro Español de Derechos Reprográficos (CEDRO – ‘Spanish
Reproduction Rights Centre’), is a non-profit association of authors and
publishers of books, periodicals and other publications in any medium. The
association collectively protects and manages members’ intellectual property
rights (copying, processing, public disclosure and distribution). CEDRO was
authorised for its role by the Spanish Ministry of Culture in 1988, under the
Intellectual Property Act.
CEDRO’s mission is to represent and defend the legitimate interests of
authors and publishers of books and periodicals by authorising and endorsing
the legal use of their works.
Also, CEDRO offers the service of right holders localization (writers,
translators and publishing companies) to users that request it with different
ends
CEDRO collectively manages the rights held by its partner associations in
other countries, and is a member of the International Federation of
Reproduction Rights Organizations (IFRRO).

Roles in the Arrow Project

Vicente Aleixandre (1898-1984)
Santiago Ramón y Cajal (1852-1934)
Severo Ochoa (1905-1993)
