Can my work be copied or used illegally by others?
The German Copyright Act (UrhG) applies without restriction to electronically published material. In particular applies:
Individual reproductions, e.g. copies and printouts, may only be made for private and other personal use (§ 53 UrhG). The production and distribution of further reproductions is only permitted with the express permission of the author. Every user of the documents is responsible for compliance with the legal provisions and can be held liable in the event of misuse.
We inform about the copyright on our publication server with each document.
Can documents be deleted from the publication server?
Placing a document on the library's publication server is irrevocable and cannot be withdrawn. Documents are only deleted in exceptional cases, for example if the publication violates criminal law.
