Section 108 Study Group Report ix Executive Summary Television News Exception
• Issue: – Subsection 108(f)(3) permits libraries and archives to copy television
news programs off the air and lend the copies to users. Should this exception be amended to permit libraries and archives to provide access to those copies by means other than the lending of physical copies?
• Recommendations: – 1. The television news exception should be amended to allow
libraries and archives to transmit view-only copies of television news programs electronically by streaming and similar technologies to other section 108- eligible libraries and archives for purposes of private study, scholarship, or research under certain conditions, and after a reasonable period has passed since the original transmission.
– 2. Any amendment should not include an exception permitting libraries and archives to transmit downloadable copies.

• “Libraries of all kinds during the centuries of their existence have had a common objective—one so generally accepted that it is seldom made explicit. It is the conservation and organization of the world’s resources of recorded thought and fact so as to make them available for present and future users.”
