Summary

A

Quotations

The exception for quotation applies to works “which have already been lawfully made available to the public” under following conditions:
The Berne convention mentions one specific type of quotation, i.e. “quotations from newspaper articles and periodicals in the form of press summaries”.

Legal provisions:
Article 10(1) of the Berne Convention - this exception is mandatory, meaning that all Contracting States are obliged to introduce it;
Article 10(3) of the Berne Convention – mentioning the source;
Article 5(3)(d) of the Information Society Directive.

Use as an illustration for teaching

Article 10(2) of the Berne Convention provides the general framework, while the detailed regulations in this area are to be determined by the Contracting States. Features of permitted use:
Use of a work as a means of “illustration for the purpose of teaching” in publications, broadcasts or sound or visual recordings;
Permitted “to the extent justified by purpose”, provided such utilization is “compatible with fair practice”;

The source and of the name of the author should be mentioned if it “appears thereon” - article 10(3) of the Berne Convention.

In the EU there are some differences:

Uses by the press

  1. The scope of permitted uses is broader, it includes: the reproduction of a work, communicating it to the public or making it available to the public
  2. The source should be mentioned, including the author’s name, unless this turns out to be impossible.

Legal provisions:

Article 10bis(1) of the Berne Convention.

There is also article 4 of the Marrakesh Treaty (Marrakesh Treaty to Facilitate Access to Published Works for Persons Who Are Blind, Visually Impaired, or Otherwise Print Disabled – 2013).

In the EU exceptions for people with disabilities are allowed under:

o art. 5(3)(b) of the Information Society Directive

o and article 3 of the Directive 2017/1564 on certain permitted uses of certain works and other subject matter protected by copyright and related rights for the benefit of persons who are blind, visually impaired or otherwise print-disabled and amending Directive 2001/29/EC on the harmonisation of certain aspects of copyright and related rights in the information society.

is a temporary act of reproduction;
has no independent economic significance;
is transient or incidental;
is an integral and essential part of a technological process;
is allowed when the sole purpose of it is:
a transmission in a network between third parties via an intermediary, or

a lawful use
Legal provisions:
Article 5(1) of the Information Society Directive.

Summary

The subject of exceptions and limitations is a very broad one. In last two modules we have discussed only the basic problems concerning this subject. It needs to be emphasized that the main perspective, both for the Berne Convention and for the EU law is the protection of the right of authors. Therefore most of the exceptions to these rights are optional. The provisions that we have discussed provide for maximum scope of the exceptions and limitations. The Contracting States are not allowed to introduce exceptions that have a broader scope of permitted use but they may introduce narrower exceptions. The only mandatory exceptions are: use for quotations in the Berne Convention and the exception regarding temporary acts of reproduction in the EU.

Another issue that has to be emphasized is that sometimes there are different categories of exceptions for different categories of works. In the EU, many of the exceptions that we have discussed do not apply to computer programs and databases (e.g. private copying exception is excluded).

Q

What member states may allow according to article 5 section 3A?

A

Member States may allow exceptions or limitations in following situation: use for the sole purpose of illustration, for teaching or scientific research.

46
Q

Is the scope of the Information Society directive’s scope of the exception identical to that specified in in article 10 section 2 of the Berne Convention?

Yes, but there are few differences between them. The scope of permissible uses appears to be slightly narrower in the European Union because work can be used for the sole purpose of illustration for teaching, hence broadcasting is excluded.

What does the article 5 section 3A of the InfoSoc directive permit regarding scientific research?

A

It permits under the same conditions the use of a work for the sole purpose of scientific research.

50
Q

To whom is useful the exception for scientific research?

A

To academics, researches and students.

51
Q

Does the Berne Convention expressly provide such an exception?

A

No.

52
Q

What is the most popular type of use for scientific research purposes?

A

Reproduction of work.

53
Q

How many exceptions for the press are there?

A

Two.

54
Q

What do these two exceptions for the press allow?

A

They allow the press to use certain works without the consent of their authors.

55
Q

Where are listed these two exceptions for the press?

A

They are listed as specific exceptions in article 10 bis of the Berne Convention and in the list of permitted uses contained in article 4 of the Information Society Directive.

56
Q

What does the first exception allow the press?

A

It allows the press to use articles on specific topics published in newspapers and magazines or broadcast works of the same character.

57
Q

Why was the first exception of the press introduced?

A

To ensure the free flow of information.
