Samenvatting
Museums, libraries and archives carry collections of photographs, sound-recordings, films and manuscripts that document indigenous peoples’ and traditional communities’ lives, cultural expressions and knowledge systems. A new awareness has emerged of indigenous peoples’ and traditional communities’ interests in owning, controlling and accessing this documentation. Importantly, this has led to recognition that the management of access and use of collections raises a number of challenges for museums, libraries and archives. Managing access and use of collections inevitably implicates intellectual property (IP) law, policy and practice. Many museums, libraries and archives, and their professional associations, have established exemplary practices and protocols to deal with these issues. Publication seeks to identify and discuss some of these. |
