Google Book Search Helps Authors Sell More Books
The jury is in… and it’s a split decision. Split on the Google Book Search Program that is. Some people love it. Others think it’s the apocalypse. I really don’t want to get into the legal ramifications, copyright law and every other argument out there. The bottom line: From a book marketing standpoint, it’s a good thing. Why? It’s simple. People can’t buy what they don’t know about. Google Book Search lets people find a book with the topic they’re searching for and allows them to peek inside. If they like it, and want more they can buy it.

Copyrights, Patents, and Trademarks FAQs
The owner of a registered copyright enjoys the ability of blocking the unauthorized copying or public performance of a work protected by copyright. Depending on how old a work is, whether or not copyright was renewed, when the work was published (if at all), and whether or not it is a work for hire, the U.S. copyright term for a work may be 28 years, 56 years, the life of the author plus 50 years, 75 years from the publication date, or 100 years from the date of creation. The reader will appreciate that these terms are much longer than the 17-year or 20-year term of a U.S. utility patent.

Copyright Basics
What is Copyright and what does it protect?
COPYRIGHT LAW INDIA
Copyright law provides for protection of original works of authorship including literary, dramatic, musical, artistic, cinematographic, photographic and sound recording works. Copyright protects the expression of ideas in a tangible form. Protection starts as soon as an idea is expressed on a tangible form. Tangible form includes anything that can be touched and perceived. Expression on electronic media is considered to be a tangible form of expression.

Protect Your Ideas With Copyrights and Patents
A wise man once said, "The biggest difference between a copyright and a patent is the number of lawyers it takes to do the paperwork." There is a point to be made there, mainly that if this wise man had paid his attorney to copyright that tidbit of wisdom I probably would have had to pay him five bucks to use the quote.

Newsflash: HR Training Professional Struggles with the “C in a Circle”
There is considerable confusion among people in the Human Resources Development field regarding what is copyright protected and what is not – that little “c in a circle” (©). Many experienced trainers end up collecting lots of materials over the years and draw upon this when designing new courses. Using some of this “stuff” may not be such as good idea if the © applies.

Authors: Rename Your Book For Another Crack At Success
There are several reasons to rename a book such as adding a subtitle to be friendlier to search engines. Another important reason is to get a new copyright date because many book critics will not review an old book and reviewers often define an “old” book as one with a copyright of more than a year old.
