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.
