Summary: This paper provides an analysis of different functions of copyright within the public interest. Copyright may help to support both the culture and creativity, sustain economy and creative industry, research and development, education, and innovations. However, these functions may be realised only if the Copyright is properly balanced and if it takes into account the needs of all parties. The last few years have seen many discussions on Copyright reform and today the necessity for it is even stronger and more urgent. The current Copyright law neither suits the needs of the authors nor the expectations of users. In this paper, selected instruments and procedures on how to achieve these objectives were introduced. Exceptions and limitations of Copyright have an important and invaluable role to play when discussing the balance of Copyright. While modern trends and academic positions prefer different attitude, the CJEU repeatedly stressed that exceptions and limitation have to be interpreted strictly as it is a derogation from the general rule of the exclusivity of rights (Infopaq, Football Association Premier League). However the Slovak legal attitude is not in accordance with the European law as it does not provide autonomous and coherent application of European law (cf. e.g. TV Danmark). Therefore, it is suggested to review this attitude and not to create obstacles for legitimate use of Copyright works in the field of culture, (creative) industry, research and science and education.
