Abstract

Copyright issues have always been viewed a "stubborn disease" plaguing the book publishing industry, especially in the context of the current times where copyright is more subtle and delicate. Copyright holders' awareness of protecting their rights has awakened, making the issue of copyright particularly compelling. This work targeted at recent hot copyright cases in two aspects: the types of copyright infringement and how to avoid infringement. By means of case analysis, legal interpretation and viewpoint refinement, this paper systematically expounds various tips for "Identifying Pits" and "Avoiding Pits" on copyright in the process of book publishing. In clarifying the source of copyright, various methods to avoid copyright infringement need to be adopted to avoid the "deep pit" of copyright infringement. These measures are assured to be beneficial to the healthy and rapid development of the publishing industry.
