Nearly 16 months after an orphan works proposal died at the end of the 2005-2006 congressional session, two new proposals have been introduced and are moving rapidly through Congress. The proposals emerged after the US Copyright Office published a report in 2006 that identified the problem and proposed a solution. The Copyright Office's proposal required potential users to conduct a "reasonably diligent search" for the owner of works they wished to use. The first step for those who want to use an orphan work is to conduct a "good faith, qualifying and documented search" for the owner of the copyright before using the work.

This study assesses the relationship between an owner's characteristic decisiveness and the performance of his or her business in a sample of small business owners who started new childcare ventures. Decisiveness was found to be positively related to performance. This finding was contrary to expectations of a negative relationship based on prior research related to the effects that the need for cognitive closure have on decision-making processes. One possible explanation for this unexpected result is that often a somewhat intuitive decision-making process is often adequate, particularly for the less complex venture.
