- As of last week, the Draft Bill on the Repository (serah simpan) for Printed and Recorded Artworks (“Draft Bill”) came very close to being passed by the government. However, the government has now requested a postponement to the passing of all draft bills for which the deliberation process has already been completed by the working committee (panitia kerja).
- Under the Draft Bill, the management of printed and recorded artworks is to be implemented by the National Library of Indonesia in conjunction with the country’s various provincial level libraries. Said management activities must take the protection of intellectual property rights into account. The Draft Bill will ensure the protection of intellectual property in relation to any individual or group works.
- In addition to the management of printed and recorded artworks, the National Library of Indonesia will also be required to ensure the preservation of all printed and recorded artworks which are published in Indonesia and to improve the quality of the country’s artwork management by engaging in cooperation with both domestic and foreign parties
- The National Library of Indonesia is to engage in the management of two types of artwork, specifically: 1) Artworks which focus upon Indonesia, which are produced by Indonesian citizens and which are published overseas; and 2) Artworks which focus upon Indonesia, which are produced by foreign citizens and which are published overseas. Both types of artwork must be sent to the national library.
