Technological innovations in the 21st century have resulted in a digital revolution in the publishing and information industries. In response to these digital challenges, the U.S. Copyright Office has considered significant policy and regulatory changes in recent years, which may affect many players in the information and knowledge service industries, from publishers, content providers, and copyright owners to information consumers, such as the libraries and information professionals.
