A Walk Through The Copyright Office – Special Circumstances (For The CO)

There are a number of steps involved in the process of completing a copyright registration. Here, in the Materials Control Unit, librarians are asked to come in and review selected items presented for registration which the Library feels it would like to have both copies of the item being registered for the Library's collection. It is a rare case that the Library of Congress would request a photograph, but it retains the right to do so. Here, the Library has selected, and will correspond with the authors of a number of books to request copies for the Library's collection.
