Digital effects on book publishing are as close as your nearest device housing an ebook file. Less familiar to many in the field, however, is another area of digital shift: rights transactions. After all, our trade fairs are famous for that personal interaction, the face-to-face rights-hall visit. We asked Erin L. Cox to look at the platforming of the rights sector.

What becomes of the professional relationships so long central to the rights arena?-Porter Anderson
