Digital Library Center & Copyright
The Digital Library Center observes United States copyright legislation (title 17, U. S. Code). Assistance interpreting copyright legislation is provided by the Copyright Office in the Library of Congress. The Center's projects target resources published outside of as well as inside the United States of America. The Center's staff observes whichever affords the greatest protections: either the laws of the United States or the laws of the country of origin.
Additionally, at least one of our projects, the Digital Library of the Caribbean, accepts resources from foreign partners. It is the responsibility of those partners to observe the copyright laws of their home country or the country of origin, whichever affords the greatest protections.
