Bowker and Digi-Rights® offer new mobile app to protect authors’ and publishers’ works from piracy and illegal copyright infringement -

Digi-Rights, creators of the CopyrightsNow™ service, an innovative mobile app that simplifies copyright registration and protection for creative works, is teaming with ProQuest affiliate Bowker to expand access to CopyrightsNow™ for iPhone®, iPad®, and Android® phones and tablets.

Works protected by copyright may vary from country to country, but in general include books, blogs, scientific articles, essays, novels, short stories, poems, plays and other literary works; drawings, paintings, photographs, sculptures and other two- and three-dimensional pieces of art; films and audiovisual works; musical compositions and software. Under US copyright law authors must register copyrights within 3-months of publication and before any infringement occurs to preserve their rights to enforce copyrights and claim up to $150,000 in statutory damages plus attorney fees.

App usage is growing significantly with 88 percent of mobile users preferring to access productivity tools using an app instead of a mobile browser*. CopyrightsNow enables authors to copyright and protect their work with a simple app that delivers the speed and security of a cloud service.
