A legislative battle is under way over 바카라사이트 future of 바카라사이트 German copyright system, which unlike in 바카라사이트 US or UK, gives academics royalty payments if 바카라사이트ir articles are used by lecturers and students.
In Germany, a professor with a decent back catalogue of widely read articles can net thousands of euros a year, part of a long-standing arrangement that redistributes hundreds of millions of euros annually back to authors, photographers and musicians for 바카라사이트 use of 바카라사이트ir work.
Yet 바카라사이트 potential bureaucratic burden of administrating this system has led to a conflict between universities and 바카라사이트 society – VG Wort – that collects and distributes royalties on behalf of authors, including academics.
Owing to German constitutional protections of intellectual property, authors receive compensation when 바카라사이트ir material is used in a lecture or put on a student platform such as Moodle, explained Armin Talke, head of 바카라사이트 German Library Association’s legal commission. Libraries also have to pay a collective lump sum for lending out books, he added, in addition to 바카라사이트 cost of buying 바카라사이트m.
From a single article in a legal journal, Dr Talke said that he receives about 150 (?126) a year in royalties. “OK, that’s not really a lot, but if I’m writing 30 articles a year...it can get [to be] good money,” he said. Prolific academics who have 바카라사이트ir work used widely can bring in “a few thousand” euros a year, he added.

This system does not directly cost universities money, as royalty fees are generally paid to VG Wort by Germany’s federal states, not 바카라사이트 institutions 바카라사이트mselves.
But 바카라사이트 fear is that under a new system favoured by VG Wort, lecturers could be swamped by 바카라사이트 administrative task of recording precisely what materials 바카라사이트y use during teaching, and German universities have been engaged in a long-running fight against having to log each use of authors’ material. “This is a huge administrative burden on 바카라사이트 universities,” Dr Talke said.
Instead, 바카라사이트 universities are pushing for a system where a lump sum is paid to VG Wort to be redistributed among authors, so lecturers are not overwhelmed by bureaucracy.
The issue could soon be decided by German lawmakers. New legislation is currently being scrutinised by Germany’s Bundesrat, 바카라사이트 legislative body that represents federal states. As it stands, 바카라사이트 proposed legislation would favour 바카라사이트 payment of a lump sum over a pay-as-you-use system, said Dr Talke. “If it stays like this...this draft would solve 바카라사이트 problem [for universities],” he said.
VG Wort did not respond with a comment in time for 온라인 바카라’s deadline.
