One of the key elements of the Biblioteca Nacional's mission is to facilitate researchers' access to the information and documents held by the library.
The Biblioteca Nacional's documentary wealth is an irreplaceable source of information that would be rendered much less valuable if it were not managed and disseminated appropriately.
One of the most effective ways of accessing and disseminating information is through document reproduction, as a result of which the Biblioteca Nacional has made a particular effort to adapt to new technologies, offering new services and alternative media.
Legislation about intellectual property (revised text of the Spanish Intellectual Property Act, approved by Royal Legislative Decree 1/1996, of 12 April, modified by Act 23/2006 of 7 July – Texto refundido de la Ley de Propiedad Intelectual, aprobado por el Real Decreto Legislativo 1/1996, de 12 de abril, modificado por Ley 23/2006 de 7 de julio) establish that reproduction of works that do not belong to the public domain is only permitted for private use.
On applying for reproductions for public use (publication, public communication, publicity, etc.), you must read regulations for public use and ask for specific permission.
