Hi,
It's a great pleasure for me to tell all of you that the Chilean
Library
of Congress (http://www.bcn.cl) has released all his content with a
Creative Commons license (CC- by-nc-sa).
            
Can you explain this? All the content in the library? Or all the content for 
which the library holds the copyright?
    

I believe it is the content the library generates and not the content
they track (similar to US LoC). Claudio though, could you clarify
this...it is a good thing to clarify.

As I said in last Summit our Chilean legislation have a very weak exceptions and limitations regime. Very weak. For example, our citation exception only applies for a extract no more than ten lines, with all the technological problems that you can imagine.

This issue implies the lack of a special copyright regime for the government publications and also the legislation.
It's astonishing but in a IP law so lacked of exceptions and limitations regime it's sadly not novelty.

So, in this case what is licensed is all the content of the website, content that BCN is owner, v. gr. all the studies and normative explication. Despite what Berne says, in the case of our law, the copyright regime of the Chilean law it's a legal loophole situation not resolved yet.

Regards,
Claudio
