[pd-discuss] Communia condems the privatisation of the public domain by the BnF

Mon Jan 21 17:02:35 UTC 2013

I assume you know about some US statements on the issue from ARL:

Principles to Guide Vendor/Publisher Relations in Large-Scale Digitization Projects of Special Collections Materials, June 2010 (http://www.arl.org/bm~doc/principles_large_scale_digitization.pdf)

And the "Model Digitization Agreement" intended to implement the principles included in http://publications.arl.org/rli279/.

Also a note to let you know that Communia is currently preparing a policy paper on digitization agreements, if you have any important point that you think should be mentioned, any comment or recommendations, please don't hesitate to let us know !
Best,
Primavera
