    Considerations for Writers


    By: Joanna Penn, September 2014

    Presented by: Albert S. Lacsamana


    Copyright

    •Copyright is a legal right, existing in


    many countries, that grants the creator
    of an original work exclusive rights to
    determine whether, and under what
    conditions, this original work may be
    used by others.
    The basics of copyright
    • The primary form of IP protection for
    authors is copyright. Copyright
    protects the work of authors, artists,
    and others by giving them exclusive
    rights over original works they create to
    reproduce a piece and collect income
    derived from it.
    •After a fixed amount of time, the copyright on a
    specific work expires and it slips into the public
    domain. Until that time, if someone wants to
    use something that's copyright protected, they
    need the (ideally written) permission of the
    author and may be required to pay to do so.
    How do I copyright something?
    • Unlike more complex forms of IP protection like
    trademarks or patents that require extensive legal
    filings, the process of obtaining a copyright on
    something you've written is fairly straightforward.
    Copyright arises when something original has been
    written. Technically, you do not have to apply for
    copyright. However, you do need to be able to
    document or substantiate your copyright in some
    way if you ever need to defend that copyright in a
    legal context.
    Copyright Ownership
    • The holder of copyright is the holder of a bundle of rights:
    the right to reproduce, the right to distribute, the right to
    exhibit, the right to adapt, and other rights. These are
    usually referred to as “economic rights” because they have
    to do directly with the economic benefits of copyright. But
    aside from economic rights, there are “moral rights” (droit
    morale), among these, the right to enjoy the attribution of
    authorship. And for many men and women of letters and of
    the arts, it is this set of rights that matters more
