Handbuch Urheberrecht im Museum

The digital revolution has not stopped at museums. The topic of copyright plays an increasingly important role in their practice. The Handbook on Copyright in Museum Practice offers staff in museums, collections and archives a practical guide. In comprehensible language and with examples from numerous German museums, the book shows ways out of the "rights jungle". It gives concrete advice and instructions for dealing with purchase and loan agreements, collecting societies, protection periods, warnings, film and photo rights, multimedia and the Internet, liability issues, personal rights, quotation rights and many other topics.
