Help with copyright issues (German Press) #germany
Dear Genners,
I'm about to have a book published - a fictional diary of my relative, Clara Philipsborn. One device of her diary is the inclusion of "clippings" from newspapers. I would like some assistance in contacting ZEFYS for copyright information on the Berliner Tageblatt (2 articles) and Die Rote Fahne (1 article). Will appreciate and acknowledge contacts.

If the article was published with an pseudonym or anonymous, then the copyright is 70 years after publication. For everything else you would need a license (or a waiver). The Berline Tagblatt was merged into Deutscher Verlag, then Ullstein, that in turn into Axel Springer SE - contact form https://www.axelspringer.com/en/contactform The Copyright for Die Rote Fahne is murky. You could include the clipping with the following disclaimer: http://rightsstatements.org/page/CNE/1.0/?language=en and obtain a license in case the rightsholder will notice you. Gregory Engels

I believe if you use the clippings verbatim and cite the publication, city, date and page you can use the clipping.
