    CREATIVITY AND THE PUBLIC DOMAIN:
    DOES COPYRIGHT PROTECT TOO MUCH OR TOO LITTLE?

    While many copyright owners fear increasing threats to control over their
    work, others fear diminished freedom to use copyrighted materials in new

    quarters and explore a variety of proposals to address them.
