Abstract

This article has been designed to cater the awareness of copyright sensing of orphan collection. Author found that copyright sensing of orphan work is a real problem faced by the libraries and an important question emerges that orphan works may occur in any library To maintain the Copyright of the orphan work it is necessary to identify and trace all the legal heirs, requiring family relations to be traced with diligent examination.While most works include some information about the author, it is not always possible to identify who the real copyright owner so the efforts should be placed. This copyright sensing helps libraries to estimate their orphan collections.
