Summary "Copyright Law of the United States of America and Related Laws Contained in Title 17 of the United States Code" is a legal reference work that encompasses the copyright laws of the United States, structured under Title 17, and likely developed in the late 20th century. The text details the framework governing copyright, including its creation, duration, and protection, and offers clarity on amendments and provisions pertinent to various forms of authored works. The opening of this legal text features a preface that succinctly outlines the scope and purpose of the work, emphasizing its role in compiling essential copyright statutes. It begins by stating the constitutional basis for copyright law as articulated in Article I, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution, followed by a detailed table of contents that organizes the material into chapters concerning subject matter, ownership, registration, and limitations of copyright. Key features include definitions of terms essential to understanding copyright, particularly as they pertain to various types of works, such as "literary works," "sound recordings," and "audiovisual works." This meticulous introduction sets the stage for a comprehensive exploration of copyright law and its intricacies. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
