Ley No. 1322, art. 24 (Cita de Obras), de 13 de abril de 1992

In force since .

A snippet reproduction rule binding public and private bodies.

Instrument type
an act of a legislature

What it requires

  • You may quote short fragments of another author's work in your own work if the quoted work has already been divulged, you credit its source and author, and you include it as a citation or for analysis, commentary or critical judgment, or for teaching or research purposes.
  • Keep the quotation in line with fair practice, to the extent the purpose justifies, and without becoming abusive.
  • Do not assume this reaches a systematic aggregator's reproduction of headlines and snippets: no reported Bolivian decision has tested it beyond the teaching, research, analysis or critical-commentary purposes the article names.

These lines are LexLint's reading of the law's text.

Research summary

Legal information, not legal advice. This is LexLint's own research summary of a public legal source, and it creates no attorney-client relationship. For decisions that matter, consult qualified counsel in the relevant jurisdiction. About LexLint

Article 24 of Ley No. 1322, in the Título VI chapter on limitations to copyright, permits quoting an author, meaning the inclusion in one's own work of short fragments of others' works, provided the quoted work has already been divulged, its source and author are credited, and the inclusion is made as a citation or for its analysis, commentary, or critical judgment, for teaching or research purposes, in accordance with honest practices and to the extent the pursued purpose justifies, without becoming abusive.

The neighbouring articles in the same chapter, 25 and 26, address a state compulsory-use power over works of great cultural value after a period out of print and heirs' inability to block republication after five years of inaction, neither of which reaches news reproduction or aggregation.

The Law contains no separate press-publisher neighbouring right, no compelled platform-to-publisher bargaining regime, no recognized hot-news or misappropriation doctrine distinct from ordinary copyright law, and no located case law on hyperlinking or framed display; whether article 24's quotation exception reaches a systematic aggregator's reproduction of headlines and snippets, rather than quotation for the teaching, research, analysis, or critical-commentary purposes the article names, has not been tested in a reported Bolivian decision.
