Jerry Brito and Bridget Dooling, both associated with George Mason University, have written "An Orphan Works Affirmative Defense to Copyright Infringement Actions," 12 Michigan Telecommunications & Technology Law Review 75 (2005).
Part I of this Article defines the orphan works problem and provides examples of how it interferes with the use of creative works. Part II describes the causes and costs of the orphan works problem. Part III outlines and critiques four of the leading proposed solutions to the orphan works problem. Part IV proposes a new and practical solution to the orphan works problem. The recommendations are similar to those proposed by the Copyright Office in its recent report.
