Copyright Attorneys
The U.S. Copyright Act is Federal legislation enacted by Congress under its
Constitutional grant of authority to protect the writings of authors.
Changing technology has led to an ever expanding understanding of the
word "writings". The Copyright Act now reaches architectural design, software,
the graphic arts, motion pictures, and sound recordings.
A copyright gives the owner the exclusive right to reproduce, distribute,
perform, display, or license his work. The owner also receives the exclusive
right to produce or license derivatives of his or her work. Limited exceptions
to this exclusivity exist for types of "fair use", such as book reviews.
To be covered by copyright a work must be original and in a concrete "medium
of expression." Under current law, works are covered whether or not a
copyright notice is attached and whether or not the work is registered.
