Reuses other publishers' content, in Malawi

Copyright Act, 2016, s. 39 (inclusion of quotations) and s. 45 (reporting on current events) · Read the law's page

• You may include quotations from a lawfully published work in another work, including quotations from newspaper articles and periodicals in the form of press summaries, without the copyright owner's consent, if the quotation is compatible with fair practice and does not exceed the extent the purpose justifies (s. 39).
• You may reproduce a work seen or heard in the course of a current event, and make it available to the public, to report on that event by photography, cinematography or other means, to the extent justified for an informative purpose (s. 45).
• You need not treat the publisher's typographical-arrangement right (s. 82) as covering headlines or snippets: it protects the printed page layout of a published edition against facsimile reproduction, for twenty-five years from the end of the year the edition was first published.
