(1992)
A project organized by the Coalition Working Group on Access to Public Information with the American Library Association to develop cost/benefit analyses of alternative models for the proposed Government Printing Office Wide Information Network Data Online (GPO WINDO) Act.

(1992)
A project undertaken by CNI and Robert Ubell Associates to explore whether and how contract law, in the form of licenses and related agreements between creators and users of published works, could be applied within the context of copyright law to ease the flow of networked information. The particular objective was to determine whether it is possible to develop a common set of terms and conditions for managing relationships in the emerging market for networked information.
