This session will begin with a discussion of the rights belonging to the author of an electronic work and cover the issues involved in publishing and distributing a work from an author's point of view. Topics to be covered will include: the divisibility of rights in a work of authorship, copyright and trademark issues, special issues related to multimedia, rights clearance, subcontractor and employment issues, commercialization and issues related to publishing on the Internet. In addition, we'll discuss how to create intellectual property "barriers to entry" to your market.
