ReCreating Europe (Rethinking digital copyright law for a culturally diverse, accessible, creative Europe) is an EU-funded H2020 RIA project (Grant Agreement No. 870626) that aims at bringing researchers, experts, policymakers and stakeholders together to clarify what is needed for a copyright regulatory framework that supports sustainable digitisation, culturally diverse production, inclusive access and consumption of digital resources. By conducting research and empirical research, reCreating Europe provides a comparative cross-national mapping of (i) the governance and implementation of processes for IPR within Galleries, Libraries, Museums and Archives (GLAM); (ii) the effective implementation of copyright law by GLAM, considering sector-specific practices, with regard to digitisation-related issues and Open Access to Knowledge. The project also aims to understand the effect and uses of the digitization of art, architecture and cultural heritage in place-making, and the effect of this on the functioning of the DSM. Work is undertaken with stakeholders to improve their copyright awareness and help them to deal with issues arising from digitisation, by drafting specific guidelines. By doing so, it enables a higher degree of harmonization of current EU copyright law and policies by means of a bottom-up approach, where stakeholders play a leading role. In support of realising these aims, reCreating Europe launched a survey from September 2020 until January 2021, focused on mapping and determining whether Galleries Libraries Archives Museums (GLAMs) are aware of the implications that copyright law and open policies have on the digitisation practices undertaken by GLAM stakeholders, also determining to what extent the law functions as a barrier to access, use and reuse of digital content and suggesting the possible countermeasures. The survey was open to public and it was widely circulated in Europe. The results of the survey will be analysed and used to help recommending best practices and policies that enable ...

With a specific focus on cultural heritage institutions like galleries, libraries, archives, and museums (GLAMs), the activities of WP5 address precisely the needs of such organisations through a mixed methodology that combines theoretical research with empirical analysis, e.g., online questionnaires and semi-structured interviews, which most WP5 deliverables have or will be based on. The present output, which comprises a descriptive analysis of the legal framework (part 2), a set of Frequently Asked Questions (part 3) and Guidelines (part 4), all focusing on digital preservation, use of orphan works and use of out-of-commerce works, precisely follows this approach. The work builds upon preceding deliverables D5.1 Report on the existing legal framework for Galleries and Museums (GM) in EU1 and D5.2 Report on the existing legal framework for Libraries and Archives (LA) in the EU. 2 Both these reports were produced based on the research carried out under T5.1 European Legal Framework for GLAM industries: from closure to Openness. The goal of this deliverable is to produce a first draft of Guidelines and FAQs to help GLAMs deal with some selected issues arising from digitisation. The draft which will be circulated during the upcoming workshops organised under WP5, in which participants will be invited to discuss the FAQs and apply the guidelines to suggest (a) whether different and/or clearer rules (i.e. considering laws and policies) may facilitate the process of dealing with the identified controversial issues, and (b) whether the current legal framework is too strict to comply with, and thus possibly hindering GLAM's mission of democratising culture. The present deliverable also mirrors - to the extent possible - its twin deliverable D5.4 Guidelines & FAQs (LA) industries - Interim version, 3 which was dedicated to Libraries and Archives, under T5.2 Implementation of legal requirements and criteria for openness. Both D5.3 and D5.4 are designed to serve as instruments (thus their temporary nature) for further ...
