Discussions on public lending rights and tasks ahead

Discussions on public lending rights and tasks ahead   2019.09.09   Public lending rights (PLR) refer to the rights authors, and other original content creators have in regards to books that are loaned to the public by institutions like public libraries. PLR is a credit-type right to claim compensation in order to make up for losses the content creator may face due to the lending of their book by libraries to the public. It is not a real proprietary right that has the power to permit or ban the use of the published work itself.   Countries that have adopted PLR   Nearly all the countries that have PLR are in Europe because the program implementation was made mandatory as part of a European Community (EC) agreement.   PLR was first adopted by Denmark in 1946 and enforced by other European countries slowly after then. As of August 2019, 33 countries around the world have implemented this program (some state 35 countrie...

South Korea's Fixed Book Price Policy

South Korea's Fixed Book Price Policy   2019.08.05   Fixed book price policies are rules that set consumer prices for books at levels the publishers select. Countries where these policies exist, sell books at the same price anywhere you go. Instead of competition through prices at the commercial sale level, price competition takes place at the production stage between publishers, boosting the diversity of distribution channels and convenience of readers.The global publishing market is divided into countries that have fixed book prices and those that do not. English speaking countries like the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada and Australia, which all form one giant market do not have fixed book prices. Non-English-speaking advanced countries like Germany, France, Spain, the Netherlands and Japan all have fixed book prices. Those that do have this policy have diverse ways to enforce it. For example, in Germany and France, the governments have passed special laws for fi...

The History and Characteristics of South Korean Copyright Legislation

The History and Characteristics of South Korean Copyright Legislation   2019.06.10   Copyright born from publications, publishing industry bolstered by copyright   Copyright came to be thanks to the evolution of publishing, but now, the publishing industry is becoming fitter thanks to copyright.   The Korean word 'jeojakgwon' comes from the English word 'copyright'. After the world's first copyright law was established in 1809 in the U.K., this word has been used allacross the globe. To directly define this word, it refers to the right to copy or make duplicates of something. The word 'copyright' didn't appear from thin air, and anyone can easily ask how the word came about - what someone tried to do that involved copying.

Publishing Strategies Targeting the MZ Generation

Topic   Publishing Strategies Targeting the MZ Generation   2024.02.19   Disappearance of books and/or readers   Is it the disappearance of books, or is it the disappearance of book readers? Or is it both?According to the National Reading Survey released by the Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism in South Korea in 2021, the “annual comprehensive reading rates (the percentage of people who read or listened to at least one paperback, e-book, or audiobook)” for adults aged 19 and older was only 47.5%. That is, 1 in 2 adults did not read or listen to a single book during the year. The belief that literacy is proportional to the amount of reading has become a myth. With a basic illiteracy rate of 1%, Korea boasts the highest literacy levels in the world, but the number of books read is plummeting year after year. In other words, it is the age where people no longer read books.However, despite the pessimistic outlook for the publishing ind...
