“Joyce was a tremendous help in tracking down numerous hard to find sources for me. She knew exactly how to find them quickly and expertly gained permission to use them in support of my work. It is a must that you gain copyright permissions in today’s litigious world to protect your investment. Dan and Joyce leave no stones unturned. I highly recommend their services.”

“I thought gimp was finished in ’07 but my life has a soundtrack. I didn’t want to delete the lyrics. Wow! It’s hard to get copyright permissions. Thank you Joyce Miller at Integrated Writer Services. She tracked down copyright holders (a single song can have more than 10 and we were asking for everything gratis). It took months. That job would have made my head explode. Every month that went by waiting for copyright releases was good for gimp. I pick and poke, shine and polish.”

“This letter is written to give the highest recommendation possible to Joyce L. Miller, Permissions Editor, for the time and dedication she expended in doing research for my book and also obtaining copyright permissions. Not only is she thorough but also sensitive to the author’s needs and ideas.

“I am forever grateful for her dedication and professionalism.”

“Joyce, I can’t believe that you found this [information] so quickly. I am really impressed! Thanks so much. If you need a reference feel free to use my name.”

“Joyce has worked diligently as intellectual property manager of the Center for Educational Technologies [CET] to keep it legal in its use of all content. She reviewed all products to insure that they contained no infringing material. Her oral communication skills and her skills as a writer and editor were much in evidence . . . as she worked with artists, writers, museum curators, art gallery directors, astronomers, astronauts . . . It is without reservation that I highly recommend Joyce Miller . . . a knowledgeable and highly valued staff member whom we will be unable to replace.”
