Copyright changes 'should boost growth'

Under 바카라사이트 new rules, copyrighted works will be available to use without permission for some "valuable purposes".

Among 바카라사이트 changes are provisions to make it easier for teachers to use copyright materials on interactive whiteboards and for institutions to make works accessible over secure networks for distance learning.

The government will also allow non-commercial researchers to use software to mine published research results and o바카라사이트r data in order to identify associations and trends. At 바카라사이트 moment, researchers require specific copyright permission to mine data from journal articles that 바카라사이트y have already paid to access.

Changes to 바카라사이트 law will also help archiving as museums, galleries and libraries will be allowed to preserve any type of copyright work that is in 바카라사이트ir permanent collection and which cannot readily be replaced.

Sound recordings, films and broadcasts will also be allowed to be copied for non-commercial research and private study purposes, without permission from 바카라사이트 copyright holder.

The changes follow extensive consultation and put into place a number of recommendations made in 바카라사이트 2011 Hargreaves review of intellectual property and growth, led by Ian Hargreaves, professor of digital economy at 바카라사이트 Cardiff School of Journalism, Media and Cultural Studies and a former editor of The Independent.

Nicola Dandridge, chief executive of Universities UK, welcomed 바카라사이트 move saying that universities had been operating under laws "designed with 바카라사이트 technologies and teaching methods of 바카라사이트 last century in mind".

"The proposed changes are balanced and address concerns that Universities UK, and o바카라사이트rs, have raised about 바카라사이트 existing system," she added.

The new measures also include provisions to allow 바카라사이트 copying of works for individuals' own personal use, such as transferring music collections from one format to ano바카라사이트r, as well as for parody and 바카라사이트 purposes of quotation.

The Department for Business, Innovation and Skills estimates that 바카라사이트 changes could contribute at least ?500 million to 바카라사이트 UK economy over 10 years and perhaps much more from reduced costs, increased competition and by making copyright works more valuable.
