DPLA Policy on Metadata Part II

DPLA


DPLA has undertaken the task of developing a policy  to make available to all free databases of metadata.  They have a commitment to ensure unencumbered access within the copyright law.

The policy also explains their definition of content, metadata and preview...so check that out 

So here we go 

  1. Majority metadata not subject to copyright restriction.They believe majority of metadata not subject to copyrights.
  2. DPLA partners share this commitment and vision.  Plus, have partners agree to dedicate metadata to public domain.
  3. No rights over anybody and give it to public domain
  4. Free I said free!!!!! and unencumbered (luv that word)..harvest/collect/modify and use and reuse.

So that's the basic concept!!!
