White House Releases Plan for Protection of Intellectual Property.

On Tuesday, June 22, 2010, the White House released the first Administration Strategic Plan on Intellectual Property Enforcement. To develop this plan, the administration worked with governmental agencies and received significant input from the public, companies, industry groups, unions, consumer groups and academics, including the Graphic Artists Guild and The Copyright Alliance, of which the Guild is a member.

The Guild Was Well Represented at the HOW Conference

The Guild made a great showing at the HOW Conference in Denver, June 5 - 9. Haydn Adams (San Franscico, CA) and Paula Hinkle (Akron, OH) worked with Colorado native David Veal to promote the value of membership and protecting our intellectual property. "We appreciated the many visitors to our Guild resource center booth". David said, "I am so proud to be here, in Denver, meeting designers from around the country and answering their questions about joining the Guild.
