ABSTRACT

This study is about the copyright policies by Korean government and the revision of the article 31 library exemption provision in the Copyright Act of Korea for noncommercial scholarly works considering through cases of copyright disputes occurred in Korea during the 2005~2007. This study proposes that works not for sale including thesis should be exempted from the copyright compensation in the article 31(5) in the Copyright Act of Korea based on the properties of noncommercial scholarly works and the regulations on works for not for sale in the current Korean copyright act. Also, this study reports that the copyright trust of scholarly articles by the copyright trust management agency is illegal in part and the government which has a duty to direct it has to control the illegal actions. Finally, this study proposes that noncommercial scholarly works such as thesis and scientific articles are to be open access and Korean government should develop open policies for them.
