Abstract
Aim of this work is to emphasize importance of reconsideration of information society phenomena, especially intellectual property regime. As ongoing trend of intellectual property protection implies privatization of what's considered a common good, a notion of intellectual property within actual reality of controversial issues in domain of property rights, became a focal point of contemporary discussions on the horizons of ICT policies.
Policies of networked society in the context of techno-capital intellectual property regime are to be judged from the perspective of global intent to control information. In the digital era this tendency is perceived as digital rights management purported by the legislation that guarantees sanctity of intellectual property. For that reason it is important to reveal processes of the intellectual property de-regulation by which digital rights management is globally set. Copyright is to be considered an effective monopolistic tool in hands of corporations that legally jeopardize rights to access the information and use it as a common good. Online environment in which today's libraries operate simultaneously facilitates and confuse librarians' actions by conflicting relationship between right holders and users making difficult to benefit the both. Information ethics opens up spaces for critical standpoints on information society since professional responsibility of librarians,
information workers, is at stake.
