Copyright, public policy, and information technology.
Photocopying, computing, and other neopublishing technologies may threaten the traditional foundations of the creation of knowledge and simultaneously promise ever-faster creation of scholarly insights and social decision-making.

These are multiple dilemmas, and must be faced squarely in formulating new policies for new technologies.
