Abstract
"Knowledge Society" as explained by Daniel Bell's sociological analysis is a social form whereby intellectual resources of knowledge have economic values following post-industrial development. In lifelong education, the Information Library in which adult students can search freely through the internet anywhere or any time is required. There is a complication with intellectual property rights, such as copyrights which can result in an alienation factor. This paper proposes the necessity for copyrights revision based on the example of the image library in the on-line Adult Information Educational Lecture which is part of Information Network and Kawaguchi NHK Broadcasting Archives.
