Re: http://archiv.twoday.net/stories/287857/

I have received today the following mail.

Copyright in Unpublished Material

The term of copyright protection in Crown copyright works depends to a large
extent on whether/when the work has been commercially published. The
following is a summary of the position in respect of literary works:

if a work is published commercially within 75 years from the end of the
calendar year in which the work was made, it has a life of 50 years from the
end of the year in which it was first published. Section 163(3)(b) of the
Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988 applies.
If the work is not published within 75 years from the year in which the
material was made it would have a copyright life of either:

125 years from the end of the year in which the work was made (Section
163(3)(a)); or
50 years from the end of the calendar in which the new copyright provisions
came into force (1 August 1989). This is under Schedule 1, Section 41(3) of
the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988.

whichever is the later.

I have provided a link to Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 -

I hope this helps.
