Title A name given to the resource RightsStatements.org Subject The topic of the resource This online resource provides 12 standardised rights statements developed for the needs of heritage institutions and online heritage platforms that can be used by heritage institutions to communicate the copyright and reuse status of digital surrogates to the public. Description A description of the content of the resource or work RightsStatements.org provides a set of standardized rights statements that can be used to communicate the copyright and re-use status of digital objects to the public. Our rights statements are supported by major aggregation platforms such as the Digital Public Library of America and Europeana. The rights statements have been designed with both human users and machine users (such as search engines) in mind and make use of semantic web technology. Learn more about how you can use our rights statements here. Abstract A summary of the resource. <p>RightsStatements.org is a joint initiative of Europeana and the Digital Public Library of America (DPLA). Europeana, the Digital Public Library of America, and many other libraries, archives and other cultural heritage institutions believe that everyone should be able to engage with their cultural heritage online. We can help achieve this by providing cultural heritage institutions with simple and standardized terms to summarize the copyright status of Works in their collection and how those Works may be used. These simple and standardized terms we call “Rights Statements.” Providing this information is essential for those who wish to actively engage with the works they find online. Can they use it in a school report? Print it on a t­-shirt? Integrate it into a commercial app?</p> <p>Currently, there is no global approach to rights statements that works for a broad set of institutions, leading to a confusing proliferation of terms. Simplifying the use and application of Rights Statements benefits both contributing organizations, which share their valuable collections online through aggregators such as Europeana and the DPLA, and the people who engage with those collections.</p> <p>RightsStatements.org provides 12 standardized rights statements that can be used by cultural heritage institutions to communicate the copyright and re-use status of digital objects to the public. These statements provide a minimum, baseline standard for organizations contributing to the DPLA, Europeana and any other digital aggregator that adopts the RightsStatements.org standard.</p> <p>RightsStatements.org establishes the vocabulary that every organization can use to talk to their audiences about copyright and related rights in a meaningful way. It provides the technical and governance infrastructure to support their development and adoption, and ensure their on­going relevance.</p> Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Europeana Digital Public Library of America (DPLA) Language A language of the resource ENG Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource CC0 Public Domain Dedication Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context CleanUrl: rightsstatementsorg Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2017-04-14 Copyright Cortex Fields Extra CC fields for copyright information Jurisdiction Worldwide Copyright Information Information about the copyright status of the record.
