Every year, new works enter the public domain as copyright protection – which lasts for 70 years after the author’s death in Belgium – expires. For heritage institutions, this is prime material for enabling reuse. Public Domain Day provides the heritage sector with a platform to showcase their open collections and to share recent achievements, best practices, and future plans with the world.
