Abstract
Work is going forward at CNRI, in conjunction with ARPA and the Library of Congress, on the design and implementation of an Electronic Copyright Management System (EMCS) to demonstrate the licensing of rights and permissions, payment of any royalties, and the electronic deposit, registration, and recordation of copyright works and related documents in a computer network environment. A variety of economic, social, and legal issues need to be addressed by both rightsholders and users in the course of this project. Cooperation among the copyright, computer, and communications industries concerned, taking into account the balance between protection for copyright works and the needs of the public for access to information, is essential if such a capability is to become a valuable maketplace tool
