Digital legal deposit

As a cultural heritage institution under the Ministry of Culture, the Royal Danish Library handles the collection and preservation of both physical and digital cultural heritage. We collect some digital materials automatically, but there is a lot of content that we do not receive.
 

We therefore encourage record companies, publishers, local radio stations, authors, musicians and others associated with digital publications and e-books to hand over the publications to us to help us preserve the cultural heritage. You do this by uploading here on the page.
 

Currently you can upload music, e-books, local radio and digitised theatre scripts.
 

Once we have received your material, we preserve the content for posterity in accordance with the rules and guidelines in force at any given time. To the extent possible, we provide access to the content in accordance with applicable legislation, including the Copyright Act.
 

If you have material for submission that cannot be uploaded here, for example magazines, audiobooks or podcasts, please contact us.
