The publishing industry has undergone significant changes over the past few decades to keep pace with the shifting expectations of consumers in the digital age. As a result of this transformation, consumers have more opportunities than ever before to access digital works online. The publishing industry now faces new copyright challenges beyond simple piracy that threaten to undermine the exclusive rights undergirding the creative ecosystem. Join Hudson Institute for a panel discussion on the hot-button issues affecting the publishing industry today, including digital first sale, controlled digital lending, state compulsory licensing, and ancillary rights.
