Wissensturm
Whenever copyright collides with the public’s interest in free access to information nowadays, online archives face numerous legal and cultural-economic challenges. The nature of the specific problems that emerge thereby and potential solutions to them are the subjects of speeches, panel discussions and workshops presented by ARCHIVIA.
Legal Issues Confronting Archives
This will be the second such conference held in Linz’s Wissensturm facility during an Ars Electronica Festival. At this conclave, archivists, scholars and government agency officials will be able to consider and discuss the legal situation currently facing online archives, mediatheques and repositories.
This conference is staged under the aegis of “Captcha,” a project financed by the EU.
Please preregister via e-mail at office@archivia.at; nevertheless, spontaneous attendance is permissible and expressly desired. Admission is free of charge.
