Summary/Abstract: Literature is a living matter that changes and develops, culture and science change with it, but also publishing. After the fourth industrial revolution literature is under the influence of modern technologies and accelerated development of society expressed in new forms, in addition to the traditional ones. Publishing as a business changes the ways in which it reaches the audience and adapts the forms to the generations growing up in the 21st century. This is how today literature is expressed and enjoyed in several forms: traditional books, electronic books, and audio books. Regardless of the appearance form, all these works of literature enjoy copyright protection. That protection belongs to all works of authorship universally only by virtue of the fact that those works are defined as works of authorship. Copyright provides legal frameworks for the protection of the author, regarding the created work, but also the transfer of the copyright in whole or in part to the publisher, as well as the procedure for publishing the book. The activity of business entities engaged in publishing, as well as authors, depends on the understanding of this procedure. Literary works, unlike other works of authorship (for example, music and film) have certain specificities, and copyright differs in some elements from copyright in other forms. Especially in the process of issuing, obtaining ISBN and CIP, etc. In this paper, we will try to give a brief overview of copyright in terms of the forms of publishing in literature.
