sweatwork

sweatwork. Slang. A compilation, esp. a searchable computer database, that does not qualify for U.S. copyright protection because the underlying facts are not copyrightable and the compilation is not a nontrivial arrangement. • New forms of intellectual-property laws are aimed at protecting the “sweat-of-the-brow” investment that goes into compiling databases. Cf. SWEAT-OF-THE-BROW DOCTRINE E.
