数字时代图书馆被诉著作权侵权问题探究

Probe into the Sueded Copyright Infringement of Libraries in the Digital Age

相较于传统图书馆,数字时代的图书馆建设明显加剧了著作权保护与公共利益间实现平衡的难度,这显然对图书馆的发展提出了更高要求。在系统梳理图书馆被诉著作权侵权的案件后,不难发现图书馆的行为实施与抗辩事由都具有显著的类型特征,这就使得有必要对数字时代图书馆可能出现的著作权侵权行为进行预防。基于此,为了合理规避图书馆被诉著作权侵权的风险,在未来图书馆应当与著作权人全面订立著作权许可使用合同,并在对外展开的数字阅读服务中对链接提供予以优化,深入践行“通知—删除”规则,以此促使图书馆在实现良性发展的基础上最大程度发挥应有功能来满足人民群众对美好生活的需求。

Compared with traditional libraries,the construction of libraries in the digital age has aggravated the difficulty of striking a balance between copyright protection and public interests,representing another challenge for the development of libraries.After systematically sorting out the library’s alleged copyright infringement cases,it is not difficult to find that the library's behavior implementation and defenses have significant typological characteristics,which makes it necessary to prevent copyright infringements that may occur in libraries in the digital age.Based on this,to reasonably avoid the risk of the library being sued for copyright infringement in the future,the library should fully conclude a copyright license contract with the copyright owner,and optimize the link provided in the external digital reading service,and in-depth implementation of the“notification-deletion”rule,in order to promote the library to maximize its functions based on achieving sound development to meet people’s needs for a better life.
