WG: [allmenders] FW: [swiss-lib] MEDIA RELEASE: EU Rejects International Solution to Library and Archive Copyright Problems; Causes Collapse of WIPO Meeting

May 7, 2014

Just FYI -- and just another example on how the EU Commission is doing a disservice to the public interest by hampering Open Access!

The EU is now trying to pretend these don’t exist. We’re frustrated, and deeply disappointed. It appears the EU came to WIPO with one goal in mind: to kill the discussion.” > >The EU’s attempt to sideline discussion of copyright exceptions at WIPO is particularly concerning in light of the ongoing review of copyright laws at the EU level. > >Dr Paul Ayris, President of LIBER, the Association of European Research Libraries, expressed his disappointment: > >“The position taken by the EU delegation in Geneva contrasts strongly with current discussions at European level, where it has been recognised that copyright exceptions for libraries are essential, and must be harmonised in order to facilitate international research and innovation in the age of Science 2.0. The conservative position taken at SCCR 27 in Geneva this week is therefore deeply disappointing. It does not support research and education and hampers European researchers in their use of new tools and services.” > >The SCCR has been discussing a possible legal instrument to safeguard copyright exceptions and limitations for libraries and archives since 2009. It is due to submit recommendations to the WIPO General Assembly in September 2014. > >“We must act now, and engage at WIPO to make sure the EU and other developed countries know just how inadequate copyright laws are for libraries and archives in the digital, global world,” said Dr. Stuart Hamilton. > >A full list of quotes from organisations is included in a separate attachment.
