Termination of Transfer empowers authors to regain control of their work
Termination of Transfer
The Termination of Transfer (“ToT”) tool, a collaboration between
Authors Alliance and Creative Commons, empowers authors to regain
control of their work. This tool enables authors to learn about
termination of transfer provisions, which allow authors to terminate
licensing arrangements they have made with publishers that have
prevented them from sharing openly or otherwise re-releasing their
works. Anyone, including artists, photographers, scholars, and
scientists, can use this new tool to discover more about eligibility and
timing requirements for the right to take back rights previously
assigned away. While this tool is currently U.S.-based only, Creative
Commons plans to internationalize it for use worldwide.
Authors Alliance manages the website, its content, the tool, and
engagement with the public. Creative Commons hosts the website and the
ToT tool, and provides technical support. Please direct all inquiries
about the site to info@rightsback.org.
