Europeana has been developing a response to the European Commission Public Consultation on Copyright Rules
2014-01-28
To achieve a consensus-driven collective response, Europeana formed the ‘Copyright reform working group’, consisting of members from the organisations that are represented on the Board of the Europeana Foundation. We have asked each member of the group and the Network to share their positions and opinions on the consultation. Chaired by Kennisland's Paul Keller, a collective response has been documented, debated and agreed with members of the group, including noting dissent where this is necessary. To complete the process for securing a mandate from the Europeana Network, we are circulating this paper to all Europeana Network members.

Europeana is asking if:
- You endorse the Europeana response and wish this to be represented in this response,
- You oppose the Europeana response and do not wish your organisation to be represented in this response.
- You have your own views and would like to share them.
Please submit your view or questions on Europeana’s response to julia.fallon@europeana.eu by midnight of Monday 3 February.
Any explicit endorsement or dissent with the views expressed in Europeana's response will be noted in the formal response to the public consultation. Any other views shared or expressed will be taken into consideration in development of future responses or documents.
Europeana also encourages every member of the Network to submit their own response to the public consultation - you may also visit the public consultation website directly. Please note the deadline for submitting a response is Wednesday 5 February.
