| Abstract: | The exploitation of a full range of rights is necessary to make many piblishing projects economically viable. The publishing
contract sets out the rights the publisher may exploit and the division of the proceeds between publisher and author. The
categories of exploitable rights are reviewed, along with the methods of exploiting them. The impact of consolidation in the
publishing industry on rights exploitation is discussed, along with rights issues in the provision of textbooks to developing
countries.
