Example: Public Domain

@maxkaiser

„Cultural institutions should make
public domain material digitised with
public funding as widely available as
possible for access and re-use.“ (p. 5)

http://ec.europa.eu/information_society/activities/digital_libraries/doc/refgroup/final_report_cds.pdf

domain remains in the public domain
after digitisation,
b) promoting the widest possible access
to digitised public domain material
as well as the widest possible re-use
of the material for non-commercial
and commercial purposes“
