Authors Coalition Survey

ATTENTION: All new and renewing members MUST fill out this survey. The results of this survey determine the amount of funding TAA receives from the Authors Coalition each year through its reprography distributions.

Please check the categories to which you belong, i.e., in which you qualify as a published author. (Do not check more than one genre for each published work.) For purposes of this survey, a "published" work means that
1) the work is reasonably capable of being photocopied abroad and is not self-published, or 2) if the work is self-published, that there have been no fewer than 1,000 copies sold, that the work is commercially distributed outside the U.S. and is reasonably capable of being photocopied abroad. For purposes of this survey, author-subsidized publications shall be considered self-published. We know that the list is not inclusive, but all Coalition members must use this list because this is how foreign reprographic rights organizations conduct their surveys to determine what kinds of non-title specific works are being photocopied.
