i2010 Digital Libraries: Test Case "Michael Collins Photograph and the
National Museum, Dublin, Republic of Ireland"
Here we have a recent case which is important for
the issues of i2010 Digital Libraries.
I
think it comes under the DOA 2, DOA 3, and PDC 7.
Title:
"Museum
slams sale of Collins photo on internet" The
Sunday Tribune, 13 November
2005
Argument:I
personally believe that the owners of the Photograph in question were within
their rights. But, there is an obvious gap in the Law with respect to original
material such as this. I recommend that all such Photographs be digitized (at
cost to the State Institution) before loss to the National Cultural Heritage and
that all without exception shall have free access to such digitized
images.
