Popular Getting Permission: How to License Clear Copyrighted Materials Online and Off with Disk
Whether you are a musician, writer or collage artist, at some point you will run into the problem of copyright. Nolo Press has come to the rescue with Getting Permission, by intellectual property lawyer Richard Stim. Bear in mind that the book is written entirely from an American perspective. Within that frame, everything you need to learn what kind of permit you need and how to get it is inside, with ready-to-use forms and links to information resources online and off. Even if you have never looked into the sometimes-murky world of copyright law, you will be up to speed on concepts like public domain and fair use after browsing just the first chapter. Additional material on tracking down copyright owners, writing permission letters and tracking permits makes your job simple, especially if you plan to use many different materials.Specific chapters cover music rights, artwork, trademarks, Web site permissions, academic permissions, and the nitty-gritty on fair use. Stim writes clearly and forcefully and is not afraid to acknowledge that some aspects of his subject are still unclear. Advising caution in these legal frontiers, he still sticks with Nolo s empowerment theme by helping you keep up with the latest trends from home. The book comes with a PC floppy disk containing computer-ready forms in ASCII and Rich Text Format; this is a marvellous aid to the wired artist. If you want to use someone else s work legally but don t want to consult with a lawyer, sample the power of DIY with Nolo Press s Getting Permission. --Rob Lightner
