Typically, that is the domain of the publisher.  Any publisher should be
doing all they can to maintain control over the specific property, which
they are handing for the author.

It's clearly an area in flux - the means of publishing are really changing
these days - but, the rights to printed copies, electronic copies, audiobook
verions, etc should all be spelled out in the contract with the author.

If the author and/or their agent may elect to withhold other rights, such as
film or foreign language editions, to be negotiated separately.
