Description

The reCreating Europe aims to promote a creative, diverse, and accessible Europe, and, to achieve this aim, investigates inter alia stakeholders’ perspectives on the European regulatory framework of copyright law. Work Package (WP) 2, entitled End users and access to culture, examines how End-users interact with copyright rules. In particular, Task 2.5 - Empirical case studies on the effectiveness of regulatory measures to increase digital access to academics and people with visual impairments - analyses the impact of regulatory responses to paradigmatic access issues focusing on two case studies: (i) academics and the research exception, and (ii) people with visual impairments and the so-called Marrakesh exception. The two empirical studies were independently carried out but extensive communication and collaboration between the research teams allowed for comparability and a parallel discussion of the results. Moreover, we have drawn general conclusions on individuals with paradigmatic access issues.
