Abstract

The theme of this master thesis is the implementation of the Directive on certain permitted uses of orphan works in Croatia. The theoretical part of the paper describes the position of the library in relation to the challenge of extensive digitalization projects and the problems that it brings. Then, key concepts for understanding the work are defined from the existing Law on copyright and related rights, and these are the author and the author's work and represent the most important articles. In the next chapter, orphan works are presented, estimates of their volume and the development of the legislative framework. Next, the context of the adoption of the Directive in the European Union is being discussed and presented and analyzed by its most important articles. The next chapter presents a diligent search as a legal instrument designed by the Directive. In the research part of the work provides the documented display works of photographer Rudolf Firšt and displays documented diligent search.. At the very end in the discussion are presented some ambiguity of the Directive concerning the photographs and argues why the Directive did not live and fulfilled its purpose.
