The Copyright (Amendment) Act 2012
Dear friends,
Last week I attented training on “Innovative and Emerging Technology for Library Professionals” in which we were informed that the copyright act regarding Intellectual property was amended in 2012 and this act allows us to digitized any material ( i.e. books) available in our library and put on our Intranet but not on internet. This will not be a violation of law.
But friends I am not able to collect the copy of the law where it is exactly mentioned. Can anybody tell from where the exact amendment made in law can be taken, so that I can get approval by mentioning that attached copy showing the amendment made in 2012 regarding digitization of books.

If digitization is allowed, by the same logic, institutions should be allowed to make photocopies of 'any' materials (end to end) for closed circulation.
This would deprive the author of his 'royalty'.!!!

Sir,
When Institution purchased any book, naturally it is for the whole institution not for individualy. It can be used by any employee of that institution. Digitization is only helping the employees to read it on their desktop and can be used by all employees at a time if more than one employees wants to read it. There is no depriving of the author of his royalty, in my views.

Mr. Manjunath please clear one more thing, that this clause (n) is applicable to non-commercial special library also. Because ours is a non-commercial special library which is used only by employees of Indianoil corporation Ltd. Please clarify or tell if there is anyother clause which is applicable to our library for digitization of books and putting on intranet of the organization.
regards,
Shiromani
