The Stock Artists Alliance has just published extensive commentary about Orphan Works as a resource for artists and other members of the visual arts community who will be affected by this legislation. We offer our perspective as the only association dedicated to the interests of professional photographers involved in stock image licensing.
SAA also urges Congress to amend the bills and offers specific
recommendations. Unless this legislation is put forth in a way that
balances the needs of the users whom they are trying to serve with the
interests of the copyright holders whom they must continue to protect,
we again risk passage of legislation that will threaten copyright
protections and the livelihoods of independent creators.
