    The purpose of this online learning object is to explore the Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) that may be within multimedia items, and to highlight some of the complications and considerations that need to be taken into account before a deposit of this type can be made into a repository.
    Following two short introductions to multimedia and to copyright, questions are then posed on some of the details of copyright within varying item types. Feedback on, and an explanation to, the question’s answers are given. Also included is a short exercise looking at what needs to be taken into consideration before allowing a performance video item into a repository. The learning object concludes with a look at Performers’ Rights and highlights what repository staff should be aware of in regard to this IPR within potential repository deposits.
    The material of this learning object has been adapted from the interactive ‘Multimedia Deposits: Complications and Considerations’ presentation given at the 2009 Gregynog Colloquium WRN Repository Stream.

    The European Film Gateway is a 3-year project which started on 1st September 2008. It is developing an online portal, providing direct access to about 790,000 digital objects including films, photos, posters, drawings, sound material and text documents. Content will be provided mostly by film archives and cinémathèques, which are partners in the project. The collections to be made accessible have been selected to serve as a sample representing the actual digitised content held in the film institutions. The European Film Gateway will be linked to the Europeanaportal, which is creating the European digital library, museum and archive, providing integrated access to digital treasures from museums, archives, audio-visual archives and libraries of Europe. By making its archival content available through the common interface of Europeana, EFG will contribute to fulfilling one of the major promises of an integrated digital environment: enabling users to search and retrieve different media via a single access point.
