Editor's Notes
- We have done a lot of listening through several rounds of market research, including several sessions with our Publisher Advisory Group. What we have learned is that buyers of rights are struggling to get the rights they need. Sometimes they can clear the rights through copyright.com or RightsLink but sometimes they can’t.
- For example, as a rights buyer, if I buy rights for reuse in a book, what does that mean? Today, that means I probably need more than print rights. I need electronic rights and the right to publish in multiple formats. And, in electronic publishing, I can’t have my rights expire in a year. I need rights for a longer-period of time or across editions. And, if I am publishing materials in the education market, I need rights to reuse content not only in the main textbook but in the teacher’s guide and the student edition as well.
- Republication License Avoid the costly and labor intensive nature of these transactions Increase revenue and streamline permission requests by making your works available to other publishers and authors through this license
