      Join Authors Alliance’s Pamela Samuelson and Michael Wolfe for a workshop at The New York Public Library on November 3 at 6pm that will explore how authors can manage their legal rights and choose publication outlets with an eye on securing long-term impact and availability.

      Among the questions to be discussed:

      • What are terms to look for in publication contracts?
      • How and when does open access benefit authors?
      • What can be done to increase the availability of out-of-print and backlist titles?
      • What resources can authors who write to be read use in managing their own rights?

      Audience members are strongly encouraged to submit questions in advance to info@authorsalliance.org.

      This event is free and open to the public. RSVP at http://www.authorsalliance.org/nypl/. For more information visit http://www.nypl.org/events/programs/2015/11/03/write-be-read-publication-and-rights-management-strategies-maximizing.
