Digital technology gives cultural institutions significant new avenues for research, preservation and public access to collections, but also raises substantial issues about copyright management. This project investigates how museums, galleries and libraries are digitising material under Australian copyright law. Legal and sociological research involving collaboration with six leading cultural institutions will produce digitisation guidelines facilitating appropriate copyright management, and will underlie an evaluation of copyright law and industry practice. This case-study of how digital technology changes relationships between copyright owners, users and the general public offers major contributions to a central public policy issue about digital copyright.

数字技术为文化机构提供了研究、保存和公众获取收藏品的重要新途径，但也提出了版权管理方面的实质性问题。 该项目调查了博物馆、画廊和图书馆如何根据澳大利亚版权法对材料进行数字化。 涉及与六个领先的文化机构合作的法律的和社会学研究将产生数字化指导方针，促进适当的版权管理，并将成为版权法和行业实践评估的基础。 数字技术如何改变版权所有者，用户和公众之间的关系的案例研究提供了关于数字版权的中央公共政策问题的重大贡献。
