If you're using copyrighted material, don't get sued--get permission!
Before you use a song, photo, book, or any other copyrighted work, you may need to get permission to avoid being sued for infringement.
This easy-to-use book shows you how to get the rights you need, with step-by-step instructions and more than 30 forms. Find out when permission is required, who to ask, and when (and how much) you can expect to pay. Getting Permission explains:
the copyright permission process
the public domain (free content)
how to figure out who owns a copyright
website permissions
the "fair use" rule
merchandise agreements
and much more.
The 9th edition is updated with summaries of recent copyright and fair use cases, and includes real-life questions from the Dear Rich intellectual property blog.
