Now Accepting Articles for 2026

We are accepting general articles, but we are also doing a theme throughout the year:  the 1976 Copyright Act @ 50.  Yes, it’s the fiftieth anniversary of the 1976 Copyright Act, and we are taking the year to reflect.  And we want you to participate! You can fill out this form, or submit directly to EIC@copyrightsociety.org
