A quick definition of right of first publication:

The right to copy something that someone else created is called copyright. This means that the person who made the thing has the exclusive right to make copies, adapt it, distribute it, perform it, and display it. Copyright law applies to all kinds of creative works, like books, music, movies, and art. It is regulated by the government and has a limited duration. Before 1976, an author had the right to decide when and how to publish their work, but now the right of first publication is given to the author. This means that the author has the right to decide when their work will be published for the first time.

A more thorough explanation:

The right of first publication is a legal term that refers to the right of an author to be the first one to publish their work. This right is often included in contracts between authors and publishers, and it gives the author the power to decide when and where their work will be published.

For example, if a writer signs a contract with a publishing company, they may negotiate for the right of first publication. This means that the author has the right to publish their work for the first time, and the publisher cannot publish it without the author's permission.

The right of first publication is important because it allows authors to control the release of their work and to ensure that it is presented in the way they want. It also gives them the opportunity to build anticipation for their work and to generate interest among readers.
