Description: Not-for-profit organization formed in May of 1995 by authors' groups. The Registry offers a variety of services including an, automated rights payment system and Authors contact directory.
The Authors Registry is a member of How does the Authors Registry work for authors? The function of the Authors Registry is to act as a clearinghouse or payment agent for organizations wishing to distribute payments to individual U.S.-resident authors. Based on its agreements with the organizations, the Registry receives lump-sum payments and distribution data from (usually foreign) payers. The Registry's job is to get the payments to the individual authors for whom they're designated. This involves locating the author-payees (if they're not already in our database), creating an account for each one (this involves some minimal paperwork), and sending out checks. We also keep the records necessary for required reporting to the IRS (although we don't withhold taxes).
