[Wikimediauk-l] A Culture of Copyright: A scoping study

Last week, a report by Andrea Wallace, 'A Culture of Copyright: A scoping study on open access to digital cultural heritage collections in the UK', was published, examining UK GLAMs' claims of copyright on reproductions of 2D works of art whose copyright has expired. It's really well researched and written, and makes points which align well with the Wikimedia movement's views on such Public Domain works. The report (openly licensed and so naturally free to read) is here: https://zenodo.org/record/6242611 and there's a good blog post about it here: https://simon-tanner.blogspot.com/2022/03/the-revolution-starts-here-open-a… -- Andy Mabbett @pigsonthewing http://pigsonthewing.org.uk
