Preface

The CATALOG OF COPYRIGHT ENTRIES is published by authority of sections 210 and 211 of Title 17 of the United States Code. Section 210 provides in part: "The current catalog of copy- right entries and the index volumes herein pro- vided for shall be admitted in any court as prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein as regards any copyright registration."

The Catalog is subdivided into parts correspond- ing to the classes of material listed in section 5 of Title 17 of the United States Code. The table at the end of this preface shows the organization of the Catalog, the symbols used with the registration numbers to distinguish the classes, and the prices of the semiannual issues.

The record of each copyright registration listed in the Catalog includes a description of the work copyrighted and data relating to the copyright claim (the name of the copyright claimant as given in the application for registration, the copy- right date, the copyright registration number, etc.).

Information as to changes of copyright owner- ship is not included in the Catalog, but a search of the Copyright Office Assignments and Related Documents Indexes may be requested from the Register of Copyrights, and a fee for the search and report will be estimated at the statutory rate of $3 per hour.

In the case of each registration listed, except for renewals, there has been deposited a copy or copies of the work in accordance with the pro- visions contained in sections 12, 13, 1,4, or 215 of Title 17 of the United States Code.

For a more complete description of the contents of this issue of the Catalog see p. vii.

Organization of Parts

Each part listed in the following table records all current registrations in the class or classes indicated by the alphabetical symbols. Renewal registrations are separately listed at the end of each related part. The first letter of the symbol is that of the class under which registration is made; the second, if any, is a designation added by the Copyright Office for the purpose of statistical analysis. A zero immediately following the symbol, e.g., AFO, EFO, identifies a foreign work deposited under the waiver-of-fee provision (section 215 of Title 17 of the United States Code). Some parts also contain registrations made under other symbols if the subject matter or type of material is similar to that generally included in the part. These entries alone may not reflect the complete Copyright Office record pertaining to a particular work. Contact the U.S. Copyright Office for information about any additional records that may exist.
