"Madam President, it is a question of principle that we must encourage access to information and education. At the same time, we should also facilitate access to European and world culture, in which the written word does indeed occupy a special place. In this sense, the digitisation of books and free access to them is desirable, but only on the condition of what we are debating today, namely absolute protection for intellectual property. However, we have similar institutionalised instruments in the European Union. I refer, in particular, to Europeana, which we must strengthen and promote further. Europeana is a library, school, film library and music archive all in one and, of course, it respects intellectual property rights and grants free access to all citizens. The means therefore exist. The question is how we can use our powers, as the European Union, to become pioneers and not simply monitor developments in the private sector."@en1
