Authors are sometimes so grateful to receive a publication offer that they may be tempted to sign the first version of a publication contract that they receive, especially if negotiating seems complicated, intimidating, or risky. But there is a lot at stake for authors in a book deal, and it is well worth the effort to read the contract, understand its contents, and negotiate for favorable terms.

Now available to the public (following a special pre-release to our Kickstarter backers), this new guide is the latest addition to our growing library of resources for authors, which also includes educational handbooks on rights reversion, open access, and fair use.

Copyright law and contract language are complex, even for attorneys and experts. Authors may be tempted to sign the first version of a publication contract that they receive, especially if negotiating seems complicated, intimidating, or risky. But there is a lot at stake for authors in a book deal, and it is well worth the effort to read the contract, understand its contents, and negotiate for favorable terms.

The guide is based on language contained in actual book contracts, and is further supported by surveys and in-depth interviews with authors, publishers, and literary agents and attorneys. These real-world scenarios help authors understand how to approach negotiation, what kinds of clauses to look for (and which to avoid), and how to engage in productive conversations with agents and publishers to ensure author-friendly contracts that align with their creative and pragmatic goals. The guide is designed to empower authors to shape a publication contract that benefits them, their publishers, and readers, ultimately increasing the impact of their books.

You can download the guide and learn more about contracts and negotiation at our new Publication Contracts resource page. (And, for those who prefer to read Understanding and Negotiating Book Publication Contracts in print, we will release a softcover edition later this fall.)

Does your employee handbook tell employees it is not a contract and their employment is at-will and can be terminated at any time for any reason? Does your employee handbook tell employees the company can unilaterally change policies at any time? Would you be surprised to learn that, even with such language, your employee handbook may still constitute an employment contract and expose the company to breach of contract claims from terminated employees? While it is well known the at-will employment doctrine generally allows employers to terminate an employee at any time and for any reason, there are exceptions and a recent Alabama Supreme Court decision may make it easier for employees to argue employee handbooks impose contractual obligations on employers going forward.

Editing Templates Process
The training shows the process to copy and paste a fully edited contract (produced outside of PeopleSoft) into the SCM Contract Document created by selecting the corresponding SOI template. One example of when a contract author might use this process is to copy an agency specific Grant template into the Word document created by selecting the Document Type SOI_GRANTS.

This 15 minute video will walk through the steps to edit and upload the text contract document covered on pages Phase2-5 through Phase2-9 of the Creating Contracts and Amendments manual.

SCM - Update Admin by Agency Contract Author (pdf)
Agency Authors must have Cross Access with each other for this update process to work. Once this is in place, these instructions are for the Current Contract Author to reassign a contract to another Author. If the current Author has left employment, a GMIS ticket will still be needed.

A supplier will electronically sign the SCM Contract Document once the State's Contract Administrator has completed the final version of the contract document. An Internal Signer will electronically sign the SCM contract prior to it being routed to the oversight agencies (IDOA, IOT, SBA and AG) for approval.

An oversight agency Approver will review a SCM Contract Document after it has been signed by the supplier, the State agency and any other Approvers that came before him/her. The Approver will approve or deny the contract.

The Legal Department regularly holds contract seminars to instruct members how to negotiate with publishers and agents. This knowledge can help keep harmful terms out of contracts in the first place and make sure they do not surreptitiously appear later in negotiations.

This handbook is designed to inform property owners of their rights and responsibilities in terms of their duty to fence. Discussed areas include a property owner's responsibility to fence when livestock is kept on the property, the rights of adjoining landowners to fence, placement of fences, encroachments, boundary lines, easements, contracts, nuisances, and a landowner's responsibilities towards persons who enter his or her property.

This handbook is intended to provide a basic overview of the many rights and responsibilities that farmers and farmland owners have under Florida's fencing and property law. Readers may value this handbook because it informs them about these rights and responsibilities. However, the reader should be aware that because the laws, administrative rulings, and court decisions on which this booklet is based are subject to constant revision, portions of this booklet could become outdated at any time. This handbook should not be viewed as a comprehensive guide to fencing and property laws. Additionally, many details of cited laws are left out due to space limitations. This handbook should not be seen as a statement of legal opinion or advice by the authors on any of the legal issues discussed within. This handbook is not a replacement for personal legal advice, but is only a guide to educate and inform the public on issues relating to fencing and property laws in Florida. For these reasons, the use of these materials by any person constitutes an agreement to hold the authors, the Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, the Center for Agricultural and Natural Resource Law, and the University of Florida harmless for any liability claims, damages, or expenses that may be incurred by any person as a result of reference to or reliance on the information contained in this handbook.

For legal purposes as well as for clarity's sake and ease of recording, it is always better to have a written contract than a verbal agreement. A written contract provides you and your neighbor a better understanding of the intentions of all parties involved in the contract. In addition, it is usually easier to bind someone to a written rather than a verbal agreement. Although the list below does not provide a full list of everything that should be included in a written contract, the following elements should be included in any valid, legally recognized contract:

Court actions are always expensive and time consuming. To avoid going to court in a dispute, start with a written contract, ensure all vague terms are clearly defined, and verify that all parties have agreed upon the terms. While the above list is not completely inclusive, it should help provide some guidelines in making a contract. In the case where a dispute does arise, be reasonable and try to reach a compromise with the opposing party even if you think you are right. Compromise and settlement are usually much more efficient and less expensive than court costs.

If a writer is employed to work as part of a team in collaboration with a writer also employed in an additional capacity (e.g., a producer or director), a writing contract for the team is required in Page 4 order for the writer also employed in an additional capacity to claim co-authorship of the team's material. (See "Section III.B. Production Executives.")

Although it is the Company's responsibility to send the Notice properly in accordance with the MBA, it is in the best interest of each participating writer to make sure the Guild and the Company always have current contact information to ensure proper and timely delivery. If a writer contractually designates an agent or other representative to receive Notices, then the writer should periodically remind such representative to forward all Notices in a timely manner so important deadlines are not missed.
