Network Discover the New WIPO Toolkit on Preservation with IFLA, ICA, and ICOM

The IFLA, ICA, and ICOM along with the authors of the Preservation Toolkit, Rina Pantalony, Kenny Crews, and David Sutton shared insights into the Toolkit on Preservation.

The Toolkit on Preservation, drafted at the request of IFLA, ICA, and ICOM by the WIPO Secretariat, provides a roadmap for laws that allow libraries, archives, and museum professionals to preserve our cultural heritage in today’s world. As climate change, human conflict, and technological obsolescence continue to threaten our collections, it is increasingly urgent for copyright laws to support – rather than hinder – the copying needed to safeguard our cultural heritage. The Toolkit helps both to evaluate your current copyright laws, and explore what options there could be in future reform to achieve this goal.
