How you're using it, what the book is about and who the trademark owner are all issues that come into play.<br /><br />Many times this can fall under nominative advertising:<br /><br />"Nominative use is a term a defense to trademark infringement in the United States, by which a person may use the trademark of another as a reference to describe the other product, or to compare it to their own."<br /><br />Check this link: http://www4.law.cornell.edu/uscode/html/uscode15/usc_sec_15_00001125----000-.html for further info<br /><br />Hope that helps!

What are the rules pertaining to using a registered trademark in a book title? For example, in "The Starbucks Experience" Joseph A. Michelli uses both the Starbucks name and logo on his title page. Did he need permission from Starbucks to do that? Thank you for your help! SylvieSylvie Paquettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14980091939571491913noreply@blogger.com
