Directive (EU) 2019/790 on Copyright in the Digital Single Market has introduced an EU-wide exception that allows libraries to digitise their collections for preservation purposes only, and as such does not permit further distribution or uses of the content like its making available online. Whereas Member States had to transpose this Directive by June 2021, an updated mapping of the national measures having a bearing on the libraries’ services in relation to their collections would help in Union broadening the knowledge base of the problems reported for further policy considerations. As a follow up of the study, the Commission will launch an awareness raising campaign to promote the results of the study at European and national level and possibly other support measures that may be identified during the study.
