Supreme court to hear copyright case
The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to consider whether the publisher of a print publication may add an article written by a freelance writer to an electronic database without the author's permission when there is no contract between the parties or the contract does not specifically cover the future use of the article in an electronic database. Six freelance writers are pursuing the case and claim the right to publish a printed version of an articles does not automatically include the right to publish it electronically. |

Its Web address and e-mail address also reflect this new emphasis. |
