Description

Understanding the complexities of copyright law is essential for legal professionals, researchers, and historians. This book examines the significant challenges posed by orphan works, which are creative works whose copyright owners cannot be identified or located. Because of the risk of infringement liability, many abandoned works remain hidden from public view and circulation. This text provides a clear definition of the problems associated with orphan works and argues that these issues are real and require legislative solutions. It offers an analysis of the different views held by stakeholders and explores the constraints that the current structure of U.S. copyright law places on potential solutions. By studying this work, readers gain insight into how uncertainty regarding ownership affects the accessibility of cultural and intellectual assets. This is a necessary resource for anyone studying the intersection of business, finance, and law.
