One recent article on Corbis may be found in an edition of Art News.
Another is set to appear as the lead article in the upcoming special edition
of the journal VISUAL RESOURCES. In this article, Karen Akiyama, the
manager of Corbis' legal affairs division, discusses some of the contract
terms and issues in agreements Corbis has made with its image suppliers.
She also explains some of the kinds of responsibilities the company has
undertaken on behalf of their clients and suppliers.
This edition of VISUAL RESOURCES is scheduled to appear in December. For
those readers who may have interest in this publication, I am attaching a
copy of the table of contents below. If you wish to receive information on
how to order this edition you may write to me and I will place your name on
the distribution list of those people interested.
