Abstract(in English) The digitization of textbooks that have been authorized by the Minister of Education(hereafter referred to as Authorized Textbooks), including revision of related legislation and systems, is currently being reviewed primarily by the given Ministry. However, it is likely that the digitization of Authorized Textbooks will face a host of challenges, including the complexities of copyright clearance of copyrighted works, as well as large-scale projected cost increases. It is feared that the complexities involved with copyright clearance of copyrighted works and cost rises will lead to a delay in the digitization process itself of Authorized Textbooks. And also, it may be this may hinder improvements in the quality of digitized Authorized Textbooks and their effective application for secondary use. Therefore, this paper has organized the issues presented by digitization of Authorized Textbooks, including related legislation, previous research, and current digital textbooks. In addition, this paper has examined ways of copyright clearance of copyrighted works in an age where authorized textbooks have been digitized, keeping in mind the possibility of open access eventually being provided.
