Book provides detailed coverage of: copyright requirements; the duration of copyright; copyright forfeiture and abandonment; the “publication” requirement and more.
The public domain, which consists of creative works not protected by copyright, represents a valuable intellectual resource. However, determining whether a work (or parts of a work) falls within the public domain can be a complex task. Copyright and the Public Domain offers much-needed clarity on what is and isn’t protected by copyright law. Written in plain language, it explains how and why works of authorship enter the public domain. The guide provides in-depth coverage of essential topics such as: copyright requirements, the duration of copyright protection, forfeiture and abandonment of copyright, the “publication” rule, non-copyrightable elements of a work, the restoration of foreign copyrights under GATT, conducting copyright renewal searches, and other critical issues related to public domain works. Additionally, it discusses non-copyright restrictions that may affect works in the public domain. It serves as a crucial resource for anyone involved in intellectual property law.
