Norbert - excellent article; as a librarian myself, didn't want to
'blow our own trumpet' too much, but you are absolutely right - IFLA
and other library organisations have done much work on 'user rights'
and the current imbalance in national & international copyright
legislation. ISOC Chapters could gain much from working more closely
with librarian activists...<br>

The Internet is for Everyone - so "user rights" have to get more
attention than the interests of some big economic entities. <br>
<br>
I would appreciate to see some discussion among chapters on this
issue, just as Mark Perkins suggests - in some countries, the
strict enforcement of copyright legislation (at a price level of
economically strongly developed countries) is a serious social
issue, among others with negative effects on education. <br>
