Introduction

PART 1 lists works registered in class A and contributions to periodicals registered in class B under the symbol BB.

The works listed include not only the current output of the publishing industry of the United States and many works in English and in foreign languages published abroad, but also the products of many specialized publishing enterprises. Thus, in addition to novels, biographies, poems, books on history, religion, etc., and other works of general interest, there are included business re- ports and yearbooks, trade catalogs and directo- ries, manuals, instruction books, industrial and legal services, research studies in many fields, and, in some instances, printed matter attached to or accompanying games, filmstrips, and other articles.

Each work is described in a main entry which includes information pertinent to the copyright claim. Arrangement of entries is alphabetical under the name of the author (i.e. the person or organization principally responsible for the con- tent of the work) or, in the case of some serials and certain other works, under the title. References lead to the main entries from the names of con- tributing authors (e.g., joint authors, editors) and claimants. Works for which the subsisting copy- right has been renewed are listed separately in the Renewal Registrations section.

Each name listed appears in the fullest form and in the spelling found in the work and accompany- ing application. A name recorded in connection with more than one work and application may therefore appear in varying forms and degrees of fullness.

The Title Index covers both currently registered works and renewals. Omitted are titles of telephone directories which can be found only in the main section under the name of the author, who is usually the claimant. Omitted also are titles of serials and other works which are entered under title in the first two sections. Renewal registrations are identified by the symbol (R).

For works currently registered, each main entry includes, in addition to the name or title
