In this paper a new schema is proposed and a system is developed to resolve copyrights' concerns for authors and publishers of electronic materials. Authors and publishers needs are considered carefully in order to protect copyrights for electronic materials according to the interests of authors and publishers in a customized way. Many techniques are used to achieve the security requirements including data encryption techniques and securing the network connection. To illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed schema, a software tool is produced to materialize these ideas.
