Abstrakt:

In the current networked age, libraries are negotiating complex information property terrains formerly traversed only by publishers and commercial entities. Many kinds of digital objects now touch the hands of librarians. Stewardship of these objects, in many cases already digitized before they reach the library, involves detailed description, presentation and – in some cases - preservation.

While the challenges of description and preservation are great, the question of presentation of objects can be one of the most difficult for libraries to solve. To whom and for what purposes can objects be presented? What rights are tied to each object, and what does this mean for their availability on the open web? Does it make sense for one’s library to manage such rights, or should this function of rights clearance – so foreign to the culture of many libraries – be outsourced to other entities?

Advocates of local solutions often see the role of library as publisher to be crucial to a definition of a new kind of library; others look towards centralized partners to aid local object holders. Combinations can also be found, and locally-managed digital object repositories, such as open-source Fedora, can interact with and leverage more centralized, rights-managed environments (e.g., ARTstor).
