Defining our terms
• Rights data = data relating to:
– Primary contracts
– Mandates/delegations of rights
– Rights
– Permissions
– Licenses
2

The basics …
• Are there problems?
• Are they sufficiently serious to
justify spending time looking
for solutions?
• Can they be fixed?
• Are they problems susceptible
to systematic, industry-wide
solutions?
• Are they “BISG problems”?

Opinions
• Publishing is a rights business
• Every online transaction is a rights
transaction
• Signs of good practice are evident

expectations are driving change

Challenges
• Failing to see the whole
• Rights silos
• Automation as a threat
• Justifying investments
• Necessary complexity

Event Logs: What kind of data does process mining require?

Wil van der Aalst

The starting point for process mining is an event log. How to get this data in a format suitable for process mining? This slide show will explain this. Each event in such a log refers to an activity (i.e., a well-defined step in some process) and is related to a particular case (i.e., a process instance). The events belonging to a case are ordered and can be seen as one "run" of the process. Event logs may store additional information about events. In fact, whenever possible, process-mining techniques use extra information such as the resource (i.e., person or device) executing or initiating the activity, the timestamp of the event, or data elements recorded with the event (e.g., the size of an order).

William Tanenbaum

Conventional deal structures do not always work when big companies engage small cloud and social media companies as part of marketing and digital business. To go live you need to go smart. Legal documents need to enable, not delay. Due diligence is important: Are you picking a winner or a loser? Would you invest in this company? Is security backed in or will you be subject to a privacy breach and a reputational hit? Are the investors in it for the long haul or are they taking a flier?

bisg

"The State of Current Rights Management Systems: Initial Findings from BISG & CCC’s Joint Survey of Publishers and Vendors" Many publishers see a trend that may be, like e-books a couple years back, an early indicator of sea-change for our industry. While book sales are becoming more and more elusive, opportunities to sell licenses of content fragments for websites, apps and derived books are growing. Consequently, the mismanaging of rights associated with these fragments can have severe impacts on a publisher’s brand and bottom line. Unfortunately, figuring out who owns all rights available to a work often requires costly research and negotiation that can eat up potential profits before they’re realized. Often, this discourages publishers from responding to rights licensing requests at all. Those who do struggle to track collections and expend costly resources on managing revenues. And when they do license content, they struggle to track collections and expend costly resources on managing revenues. Under direction from BISG, rights experts from the Copyright Clearance Center (CCC) and MetaComet Systems, with the help of The Idea Logical Company, have researched the extent of this challenge across the industry. It is hoped that results from this research can lead to recommend best practices for rights management. During this three-part presentation, Heather Reid (CCC), David Marlin (MetaComet), and Mike Shatzkin (Idea Logical Company) present the results of BISG’s research, describe the challenge, and detail what they believe are the next steps toward an industry-wide solution.

Can data privacy truly coexist with data intelligence? In addition to regulating personal data protection, should we control responsible data use? Stay competitive while maintaining your customer’s trust. Whether you're building AI internally or selecting a vendor who uses it, join the TrustArc, Outschool, and The Cantellus Group privacy experts as they help you define and execute your data and AI strategy.

Where's My Data? Managing the Data Residency Challenge

Cloud Standards Customer Council

Webinar presented live on February 27, 2018. Introducing the OMG’s Data Residency Maturity Model With the rise of managed IT services and cloud computing, sensitive data is regularly moved across countries and jurisdictions, which can be in direct conflict with various international, national or local regulations dictating where certain types of data can be stored (e.g., the European Union’ General Data Protection Regulation, or GDPR). Data residency is also a consideration of data owners responsible for protecting and securing data from unintended access. The Object Management Group® (OMG®), a technology standards consortium, launched a working group in 2015 to address the challenges of data residency and define a standards roadmap to help stakeholders manage the location of their data and metadata. Given the complexity of the issue, a stepwise improvement plan is necessary. This webinar will introduce a new Data Residency Maturity Model (DRMM) proposed in December 2017. Similar to the Capability Maturity Model (CMM) invented in 1990 at the Software Engineering Institute (SEI), the DRMM contains five maturity levels aimed at helping an organization improve their practices and governance of data residency. The OMG seeks feedback on the DRMM and calls on all interested parties to contribute to this work.

Beyond GDPR Compliance - Role of Internal Audit

Omo Osagiede

More than the requirement to comply with the regulation, GDPR encourages good practices for data privacy and data protection beyond May 2018. This slide deck shares examples of areas where Internal Audit can play a significant role in ensuring that the right controls are built-in at the front-end of the compliance journey. This is in-line with the increasing expectation from stakeholders for IA to add value to more strategic areas of risk to the business.

bisg

What are identifiers? What purpose do they serve in the book industry? According to BISG's Best Practices for Identifying Digital Products, an identifier is generally a sequence of alpha-numeric characters that unambiguosly differentiates one thing from another in a particular context. But while that answer may seem straightforward enough, the fact is there's a lot more to identifiers than one might think. The book industry employs numerous identifiers for different reasons in its day-to-day operations. This webcast will cover identifiers basics—what they are, how they are developed, and how and why they are used. Special focus will be given to the venerable ISBN and its use in today's digital marketplace, and the difference between the ISBN and proprietary product identifiers. In this session, Phil Madans, Executive Director Digital Publishing Technology for Hachette Book Group, will discuss how to correctly use identifiers to ensure your books reach the hands of happy readers. This is the second in a three-part series, co-produced by IBPA and hosted by BISG, aimed at demystifying several of the core book industry standards through "101"-style sessions presented by experts in the field.
