LOGOS 132 Protecting copyright in a digital future Tarja Koskinen- Olsson A graduate in economics and business administration of the University of Tampere in Finland, Tarja Koskinen-Olsson has been, since 1987, CEO of KOPIOSTO, the Joint Copyright Organization in Finland. In 1993, she was elected Chairman of the International Federation of Reproduction Rights Organizations (IFRRO). Starting about thirty years ago, the world’s publish- ing and photocopying industries found themselves on a collision course, with publishing the weaker vessel in the uncharted seas of proliferating infor- mation. The two industries had, and have, the same objective – to enable and facilitate the passage of the written word from author to reader. But they also have basically conflicting philosophies. The publishing industry believes that authors own what they write and are entitled to recompense when it is reproduced. The copying industry’s role is to max- imize the flow of information. On copyright it takes a laissez faire attitude, leaning towards the user. The laws of most countries are on the publishers’ side, but, like all laws, mean little with- out instruments of enforcement and the ability to resort to the courts. Initiatives by authors and pub- lishers in many countries
