Training on copyright and related rights for employees of cultural institutions

Employees of cultural institutions taking part in the ‘Culture in Reach 2.0’ project participated in a training course on issues related to the application of copyright law in the processes of digitalization and publication of digitized regional heritage works. The training was conducted by attorney Marcin Lasota from Krakow.

On 14-16 November 2018, a training course on copyright and related rights in the context of the activities of cultural entities was held for employees of cultural institutions participating in the project “Culture within Reach 2.0”, whose leader is the Kuyavian and Pomeranian Voivodeship represented by the Department of Digitalization of the Marshal’s Office in Toruń. The training was conducted by Lawyer Marcin Lassota of Lassota Law Firm Sp. j., based in Kraków, in three programme blocks tailored to the main profiles of cultural institutions: museums, libraries and cultural animators and related institutions (galleries, music centers).

The training comprehensively presented issues related to the application of copyright law in the processes of digitalization and publication of digitized works of regional heritage, and the possibility of an open panel to ask questions allowed the participants of the training to explore and address the most burning and troublesome topics in practice. The trainees were provided with extensive training materials on the most important aspects of the training topics enabling them to study and expand their knowledge on their own. Over the three training days, 105 people were familiarized with copyright law.
