Legal Question in Intellectual Property in California
Publishing laws
I'm currently developing a magazine
which will contain a guide (list by
topic) of non-profit organizations,
private business and governmental
institutions located in my area.
My question is if I want to publish
just the name of the
organization/company and their
contact information, do I need to
obtain a written permission from
them?
