Tracey Armstrong Talks about The Future of Content Licensing
Copyright Clearance Center CEO Tracey Armstrong and Outsell Inc. Lead Analyst Ned May kicked off the recent “Big Ideas” Conference for BookExpo America 2009 in New York with a focus on the future of content licensing.
Armstrong described digital content licensing as a “hot space to be in right now.” She and May discussed some of the challenges facing content providers, and covered such topics as: the similarities between CCC’s licensing model and the planned Book Rights Registry, which is part of the proposed Google Book Search settlement; challenges created by new technology, including Amazon’s Kindle and eBooks; and, licensing options for today’s copyright holders.

In addition to Book Expo, Armstrong was featured in a recent article about CCC in Publisher’s Weekly.
