Dear friends,

If anyone is curious about the Rice University Press redux, I have a 
recent interview about the press with Chuck Henry available at 
http://library-cafe.org, who also talks a bit about problems facing 
scholars attempting to publish art books.     For further reading I 
highly recommend Susan Bielstein's book: Permissions, a Survival 
Guide: Blunt Talk About Art as Intellectual Property. Susan is the 
art editor for the University of Chicago Press.  There is also an 
excellent article in Septembers Art in America by Christopher Lyon of 
Prestel entitled: "The Art Book's Last Stand?"  (p .47ff).
