Abstract
“This study explores the cost and policy models adapted by US arts museums in arriving at pricing structures for delivering imaging and rights services. It examines the new market realities and opportunities cultural institutions face due to the transition to digital collections.One hundred US art museums were surveyed and in-depth interviews were carried out with 20 museums.”
Main Results of the Study
• Protecting copyright is viewed as a key responsibility of museums in their treatment of digitised images, and particularly for private museums for which this is a key internal motivating factor for using licensing services.
• All museums interviewed reported concerns about unauthorised uses of their digitised images, though only 10% pursued such unauthorised uses. The low uptake of enforcement measures is attributed to lacking of staff resource, and overall low knowledge about copyright licensing.
• More than 90% of museums reported that they would not pursue educational ‘fair uses’ of their images. However, museums are concerned about losing control of the way in which their images are depicted, and lack of attribution.
Policy Implications as Stated By Author
The study does not make any explicit policy recommendations regarding copyright reform, instead offering suggested management structures and pricing policies for digital image licensing by museums.
