CASES FOR DISCUSSION
Delhi University v. Publishers Photocopying Case
Two Legal QuestionsCopying done for a permissible purpose? Is the dealing ‘fair’?
Legality of Copying Extracts Purpose of the end-user Purpose of the copier
Question | “How Much is Too Much’ and Threshold for Determining Legality
Conclusion | “As far as this case in India is concerned, publishers have an ulterior motive. They want to create a system whereby the university obtains a copying licence from the publisher in exchange for a flat fee per student.

CASES FOR DISCUSSION
No Copyright in email databases?
TechPlus claims that they found that the defendants had copied confidential information and databases on a pen drive and emailed it to their personal e-mail IDs.
Judge saying that “to claim copyright in a compilation, the author must produce the material with exercise of his skill and judgment which may not be creativity in the sense that it is novel or non-obvious but at the same time it is not a product of merely labour and capital.
Judge say “the details of customers are not trade secrets nor are they property” by citing one judgment

CASES FOR DISCUSSION
Monkey own copyright for selfie
Raises two interesting questions:• monkey acquire Copyright in a selfie?• human acquire copyright in a monkey's selfie?
Possibility
That as no “person” took the images, there is no author, and thus no owner of copyright
If it was decided that the owner of the camera owns the intellectual property produced, this would encourage future photographers to both continue experimenting and to publish their work.

WAY FORWARD
Copyright is an evolving concept , technology domain are compelling us to rethink it more than ever before.
Traditional publishing models are facing several challenges in this context, it making difficult for authors and publishers to comprehend the gamut of options that lie before them.
Copyright is cultural idea, rooted in the country of its origin, it is equally important to view it from different facets.
What is vital is that publishers and authors in India need to work together to understand copyright and locate it within the changing nature of the publishing industry.

CONCLUSION
Librarians do not see debate over intellectual property policy issues in terms of winners and losers.
Debate on such crucial policy matters is healthy.
Adapting policy to rapid technological change is never easy.
It makes all parties nervous because they know they cannot accurately foretell the future.
The difficulty and the complexity underscore the importance of a careful and thoughtful approach to copyright law revision and rulemakings.
