Abstract
In the legislative debates surrounding the passage of the laws governing copyright in the information society a so-called »third basket« covering the particular requirements of education and research was already envisioned in 200 6. The Upper House of German Parliament (Bundesrat) had demanded then a copyright more amenable to education and research or even a copyright law for the scientific world.
