re: Texaco

The question raised by Lolly Gasaway about whether a publisher can rely on the Texaco case if their publications are not registered with CCC raises other concerns. From the publisher's standpoint, there are instances where the publisher CANNOT register a publication with CCC -- such as an electronic journal, a journal that the publisher does not want document delivery companies to license through CCC, or a publication where some authors retain copyright rather than transfer the necessary rights to the publisher.
