Reuses other publishers' content, in Liberia

Liberia Intellectual Property Act, 2016, §§ 9.4, 9.9, 9.14 (News, Quotation and Press-Reproduction Exceptions) · Read the law's page

• You may use the news of the day and miscellaneous facts having the character of mere items of press information: the Act excludes them from copyright protection outright.
• You may quote from a lawfully published work, including a newspaper article or periodical in the form of a press summary, provided the quotation is compatible with fair practice, does not exceed the extent its purpose justifies, and indicates the source and the author.
• If you are a newspaper or periodical, you may reproduce, broadcast or otherwise communicate to the public a current-issues article published in another newspaper or periodical, unless the original publisher has expressly reserved that right.
• You may reproduce short excerpts of a work seen or heard in the course of a current event for the purpose of reporting that event.
• Expect no press-publisher neighbouring right, compelled platform-to-publisher bargaining regime or separate hot-news doctrine under the Act.
