Abstract

Data protection laws, including the European Union General Data Protection Regulation, regulate aspects of online personalization. However, the data protection lens is too narrow to analyze personalization. To define conditions for personalization, we should understand data protection in its larger fundamental rights context, starting with the closely connected right to privacy. If the right to privacy is considered along with other European fundamental rights that protect information and communication flows, namely, communications confidentiality; the right to receive information; and freedom of expression, opinion, and thought, these rights are observed to enable what I call a "personal information sphere" for each person. This notion highlights how privacy interferences affect other fundamental rights. The personal information sphere is grounded in European case law and is thus not just an academic affair. The essence of the personal information sphere is control, yet with a different meaning than mere control as guaranteed by data protection law. The personal information sphere is about people controlling how they situate themselves in information and communication networks. It follows that, to respect privacy and related rights, online personalization providers should actively involve users in the personalization process and enable them to use personalization for personal goals.

Abstract

Passage of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) was a significant milestone in congressional information policy legislation. However, the results were widely criticized in some circles as providing too much Power to certain stakeholder groups. This paper uses computerbased content analysis and a theoretical taxonomy of information policy values to analyze congressional hearing testimony. The results of document coding were then analyzed using a variety of statistical tools to map how different stakeholders framed issues in the debate and determine if congressional value statements about the legislation conformed more closely to certain stakeholders. Results of the analysis indicate that significant differences in the use of information policy terms occurred across stakeholders, and showed varying degrees of convergence between congressional or other stakeholders when framing information policy issues.

Abstract

Studies have indicated that various groups of intellectual property users are unaware of many aspects of copyright law and often do not understand that it applies to works in electronic forms, or are unconcerned with copyright restrictions. It is hypothesized that users would be more likely to conform to copyright law if a process could be developed that make it easier to access copyright management information on the Internet and in other electronic media. Before designing such a mechanism, the following research questions need to be addressed: 1) To what extent are users clear or concerned with obeying copyright law in the use of materials available in electronic formats? 2) Will users be more willing to comply with copyright law if copyright information is incorporated within electronic forms in a format that makes it easier to understand or easier to locate? 3) What amount of time are users willing to devote to locating copyright management information? and 4) What methods would users prefer to utilize in locating copyright management information? To address these questions a research instrument was developed and tested in a pilot study in which sixty students from two large higher public education institutions participated, 30 from New York City and 30 from Wisconsin. The instrument ascertained each participant's experience with electronic forms, the frequency with which they downloaded copyright materials, their level of concern regarding compliance with copyright law and their willingness to comply with copyright law if copyright management information was more effectively available. They were also asked to rank possible methods for locating copyright management information. Both qualitative and quantitative methods were employed to analyze the data. The results suggest that the participants would be more willing to comply with copyright law if copyright management information was easier to locate or to understand. The results also show that few users are willing to devote more than ten minutes to locating copyright management information. The study points to a need for an easy and rapid method to locate copyright management information within electronic forms and for increased user education about copyright law

Abstract

The new technologies that are now in development will destroy copyright as it is currently known. Once it is simple to send articles in image form anywhere on the network to one or many colleagues, people will begin doing it. No amount of ligitation or intimidation will stop the practice, since it facilitates the use of information in a productive way. In addition, much that is now published by publishers will be published by the author on the various networks that will be available to him. Publishers must begin now to plan for a complete economic restructuring of the information economy

Abstract

Examines the basic principles underpinning copyright in the context of the European Commission proposals and reviews the historical background to the growth of copyright and the arguments that continue to be employed by right holders to push for more protection. Illustrates that, to safeguard information access in the digital realm any further, extensions in copyright must be balanced with reciprocal exceptions. Concludes with suggestions for possible future exceptions in the digital domain and suggests that a major concern is that copying may well be forbidden in digital environments without a proper consideration of the relationship between copying, information use and knowledge generation

Abstract

In addition to stipulating economic rights, the copyright laws of most nations grant authors a series of "moral rights." The development of digital information and the new possibilities for information processing and transmission have given added significance to moral rights. This article briefly explains the content and characteristics of moral rights, and assesses the most important aspects of legislation in this area. The basic problems of the digital environment with respect to moral rights are discussed, and some suggestions are made for the international harmonization of rules controlling these rights

Explains copyright as it affects electronic databases tressing that there is no copyright in an electronic form of a record in itself, only in a service and its content. Regrets the lack of reaction from right owners to a set of European Association of Scientific Information and Dissemination Centres (EUSIDIC) Guidelines covering information brokers and downloading and discusses the Commission of the European Communities draft directive on the legal protection of databases. Recommends close consultation with rights owners where confusion arises until the formulation of minimum downloading standards

Abstract

Downloading and information filtering are prerequisites for efficient use of electronic documents available in databases or on the Internet. Taking full advantage of electronic text collections requires a proper legal framework. Under present copyright law, electronic copying is subject to prior consent from the copyright owner, with due regard to fair use exceptions. This approach is followed by the European Union in its Database Protection Directive. The Directive leaves important questions concerning the fair use doctrine, compulsory licenses, and non copyright ('copyleft') to be resolved by national implementation as well as contractual arrangements between publishers and authors. The Directive's strong emphasis on direct revenues from users to copyright owners should be supplemented by compulsory licenses. Unrestricted access to information adds enormous value to database use and would result in more revenue for the authors and makers of databases. If the public's interest in access to information id deemed paramount to private copyright, government should intervene to secure sufficient revenues for the copyright owners

Abstract

Explores some of the practical difficulties associated with the management information as a commodity, and sketches a framework in which to address the problem in the context of electronic publishing. The strategy is based on the integration of 2 groups of technologies, collectively refereed to as 'secure SGML' which merges the platform-independent data representation offered by the Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML) and related standards with the privacy and authentication functions offered by recent advances in key cryptography. This scheme allows implementation of a licensing strategy, thereby providing a means of addressing problematic copyright and public policy issues associated with digital media. Libraries can play a key role in the installation and maintenance of the infrastructure required to support new forms of information transaction

Abstract

The concept of intellectual property is fallacious, and danegrous as it permits ordinarily honest citizens to reproduce everything from software to musical scores without authorization or compensation to the copyright holder. Intellectual property rights are really property rights. There is a need to deal with the issues in which terminology is outstripping legal protection and how proprietary claims as such are under assault. In the context of the US National Information Infrastructure this means a greater clarification of fundamental issues, followed by policy guidelines that can be understood as universal in scope and fair in purpose. The US government must advance the cause of the widest possible access of information to its citizens, while at the same time protecting the sources of creative energies

Abstract

Describes the introduction of a current awareness service, based on the contents pages of periodicals received by Lund Univ. Library, Sweden, and discusses the use of scanners, electronic mail and facsimile transmission (FAX) techniques. The systen checks in the periodicals, scans the contents pages, stores the information on the system's file server, and sends the information to the users' electronic mail address or facsimile transmission address. Recognition of possible copyright problems led to an agreement with Elsevier Publ. Co. on the basis that the system was a pilot project

Abstract

This article details the public policy framework that establishes the legal foundation for requiring access to Web-based information resources for people with disabilities. Particular areas of focus include: the application of the fair use doctrine to an understanding of disability access to digital information; the application of the Americans with Disabilities Act and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act to Web-based services; and the application of Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act to Federal Web-based resources and the extent to which Section 508 may be applicable to states through linkage under the Assistive Technology Act.
