Abstract
U.S. Copyright Office modernization efforts underway
College and academic libraries know full well the problems with orphan works, those titles for which the copyright holder cannot be found. Academic librarians seek to preserve or digitize works in their collections to make them more accessible, but this can be challenging, even after an extensive search.
