ARROW and ARROW Plus revamp their website

ARROW, Accessible Registries of Rights Information and Orphan Works towards Europeana, is a project of a consortium of European national libraries, publishers and collective management organisations also representing writers through their main European associations and national organisations.

ARROW aims at becoming the European system for the identification of rights, rightholders, rights status of a copyright work including whether it is orphan or out of print. This will facilitate the realising of the ambitious project of digitizing and making available the European cultural heritage. The system may also be used outside Europe to obtain information on rights, rightholders and rights status in copyright works.

ARROW Plus, in which the European Writers’ Council is a partner, is a Best Practice Network project selected under the European Commission’s Competitiveness and innovation framework programme, running from 1 April 2011 till 30 September 2013. ARROW Plus builds on and further implements the ARROW system, which it aims at refining after the piloting phase in Germany, France, Spain and United Kingdom.

The objectives are also to increase the number of countries in which ARROW is used; and broadening the types of works for which it is used to include visual material. Under ARROW Plus a legal entity will be constituted to prepare for the implementation of the business model. The project contributes to the goal of the European Commission and European Parliament to make European cultural heritage legally accessible through an innovative way of establishing rights status in and facilitating rights clearance of copyright works.
