The legal transition of copyright works into the public domain usually happens every year on the first day of the year, based on the individual copyright laws of each individual country.
Public Domain Day is like Christmas for creators. The gift? Free access to old works!
Creative works enter public domain when copyrights expire.
Public domain means literally that these works now belong to everybody and can be used by anybody without having to pay any legal fee and without any other restrictions.
The time it takes for an intellectual property to enter public domain is usually 50 or 70 years after the death of the creator.
