Jeffrey,

You may want to check out ReservesDirect (http://
www.reservesdirect.org/ ).   While the 2.x versions do not have
sophisticated copyright related features, Emory is working on version
3.0 (now in a pre-alpha release) that is moving more in the direction
you're talking about.   If you have any questions, feel free to write
Jason White (jbwhite_at_emory.edu), who is programming version 3.0, or
Amanda French (amanda.french_at_emory.edu) who is the project manager.
