FOB : Firms Out of Business

FOB : Firms Out of Business is a database of publishing companies that are no longer in business.  Why this type of database?  The results screen provides information in tracking down copyright holders, useful for when you are attempting to get permission to use something and cannot easily track down the copyright owner.

The main page also has links to information and resources relating to copyright, both in the U.S. and the U.K.
