The Brooklyn bookshop saving out-of-print sci-fi, one e-book at a time

1. I uncerstand that there's a huge amount of old s-f out there

that currently cannot be reprinted because of copyright issues. Authors die, not leaving a designated literary heir, or does, and that heir dies without doing the same.

I believe it's even more complicated with our current copyright laws which basically keeps everything under copyright protection until the sun cools.
