| Sumario: | This toolkit fulfills a long-standing aim of the Standing Committee on Copyright and Related Rights (SCCR) of the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) to make progress on limitations and exceptions for preservation copying, especially in the area of cultural heritage. In 2019, WIPO organized an International Conference preceded by three Regional Seminars in Singapore, Nairobi, and Santo Domingo. The events achieved a satisfying level of consensus on the need to move forward on preservation copying, as an integral element in stewarding cultural heritage collections, regardless of whether the collection is held in a library, archive, or museum. This toolkit embodies many of the ideas that emerged during those events.
