Title

Workshop Report- Input on ECLAP's Three Step Guide to Clearing Rights

Description

A big challenge that is facing performing arts organisations that want to provide online access to their holdings, is that they are often unsure how to determine the rights status of these collections, and how to clear rights. The working group on IPR and Business Models for Performing Arts Content asked attendees to provide input for a new addition on the best practice guide: a three-step guide to clearing rights, which had been presented in the morning session of the event. Questions such as "how do you approach rights clearance?" and "how does this fit in the three steps presented?" were laid out for them to respond to. The answers were diverse, but most importantly candid and they provided a great deal of relevant information for the further development of the ECLAP guidelines. This blogpost summarises the outcomes of the workshop.
