working contracts? at DVinfo.net

HIya,
Does anyone know of a source for documentary film contracts? Immediate gratification would be best (internet), but books are ok too. I'm going to do a small project for a state agency, and want to stay friends :)

If not, does anyone have any particular "lines" from their contracts that they wouldn't live without?
One I can think of is footage copyright - I want it to stay with me since I'm the shooter.

how's "Contracts for the Film & Television Industry" by Mark Litwak?

Thanks guys & gals!
