On January 1, 2007 the legal deposit system will be extended to include maps and publications available over the Internet. This change was made necessary to reflect new trends in the publishing industry as well as the increasing role of the Internet in publishing and accessing a wide variety of multi-media content. The extension of legal deposit is the result of consultations with commercial publishers, and content producers.
