E-books and Royalties  

Moderator:
Stephen E. Gillen, Authoring Attorney, Greenebaum Doll & McDonald

Stephen E. Gillen is an attorney practicing in Cincinnati, Ohio, and concentrating on publishing and entertainment transactions and disputes, internet issues, advertising law, computer law, copyrights, trademarks, technology transfer, trade secrets, and related matters. Prior to entering private practice in 1994, Gillen served for 8 years as house counsel for an educational publisher, and before that as an executive editor, editor, freelance writer, and published book author. He has written and spoken nationally on various publishing and copyright topics and teaches a course in Media Business and Law at the University of Cincinnati and a course in Electronic Media Law at the College Conservatory of Music. Gillen will lead a discussion of the current state of e-textbook royalties as practiced by the major textbook publishers. The discussion will address the prevailing royalty rates; how prevalent e-textbooks are, and what the projections are for the future, both near and farther down the road; how e-textbook royalties will affect author profits; and what authors should do to protect their bottom line.
