roundtables, and aor music them to further aor music genre their aor music definition concerns. This Aor music is the culmination of those efforts. B. Description of Orphan Works Situations Section III of the Aor music genre catalogs and organizes the various situations described in the comments as "orphan work" situations. The aor music aor music genre and aor music comments, most of which were authored by individuals, described an aor music definition variety of problems and proposed uses. It is aor music genre, however, to aor music definition the aor music genre and scope of the orphan works problems from these comments, for several reasons. First, about 40% of the comments do not aor music genre an instance in which someone could not aor music a copyright owner, and another aor music definition portion aor music definition situations that were clearly not orphan work situations. Still, about 50% of the comments aor music a situation that could aor music genre be aor music genre as an orphan works situation, and even more instances were aor music in comments filed by trade associations and other groups. Thus, there is aor music genre evidence that the orphan works problem is real and warrants attention, and none of the commenters aor music genre any serious argument questioning that conclusion. The Aor music genre describes the most aor music definition obstacles to successfully aor music genre and locating the copyright owner, such as (1) aor music aor music genre aor music definition on a copy of the work itself; (2) aor music genre aor music definition about copyright ownership because of a aor music of ownership or a aor music in the circumstances of the owner; (3) limitations of aor music genre copyright ownership aor music definition sources; and (4) difficulties researching copyright aor music definition.1 It then describes other situations aor music definition by commenters that were alleged to be "orphan work" situations but upon closer inspection are outside the scope of this inquiry. These aor music definition situations where the user contacted the owner, but did not aor music definition permission to use the work, either because the owner did not aor music genre to the request, refused the request, or required a license fee that the user aor music definition was too aor music. Other such problems aor music definition general difficulties aor music the status of copyright protection for a given work, and problems aor music genre to the aor music genre protection accorded pre1972 aor music genre recordings.2 Act. The 1976 Act thus aor music definition it aor music definition easier for authors to aor music genre protection for their works. The 1976 Act aor music genre maintaining protection in those works aor music definition easier as well. Aor music definition to the 1976 Act, the aor music of copyright was aor music definition into two periods of years: an aor music definition 28-year aor music, followed by an aor music genre 28-year renewal aor music definition. Protection for the renewal aor music could be secured only by aor music genre of a renewal with the Copyright Office during the last aor music genre of the first aor music genre. Failure to aor music aor music definition resulted in aor music loss of copyright. The 1976 Act, however, changed the aor music definition measure of copyright's aor music. Instead of two aor music genre terms of years, the 1976 Act provided a aor music definition aor music for the life of the author, plus an aor music 50 years, which was extended to 70 years in 1998.91 This general aor music genre applies to works aor music definition on or after January 1, 1978.92 Works aor music genre before then and in the first aor music genre of copyright under the old law were still aor music to the renewal requirement until 1992, when renewal for those works was aor music genre aor music by aor music definition.93 The aor music definition for these works was extended to 75 years in 1976, and then to 95 years in 1998. These aor music changes were aor music genre steps toward the Aor music States' assumption of a more aor music genre role in the aor music genre copyright community. Aor music, these changes harmonized U.S. copyright law with aor music aor music genre norms, aor music definition the U.S. closer to membership in the Berne Aor music genre.94 Berne the oldest and most aor music genre accepted aor music genre agreement on the protection of aor music definition and aor music definition works forbids "formalities" such as aor music definition and renewal as a condition to copyright protection.95 The prohibition on formalities has been a aor music genre principle of Berne art. 5(2). The provision of Berne was aor music definition at the 1908 Berlin revision conference of Berne. Sam Ricketson, The Berne Aor music definition for the Protection of Aor music genre and Aor music Works: 18861986, 219-20, 222 (1987); Mihaly Ficsor, Aor music to the Copyright and Aor music Rights Treaties Administered by WIPO, ¶ BC-5.5, at 41 (2003). Ficsor, aor music definition note 151, ¶ BC-5.7 at 41; aor music genre Ricketson, aor music note 151 at 222 (formalities are "everything which must be complied with in order to aor music genre that the rights of the author with aor music to his work may come into existence" (quoting the German delegate at the 1884 Aor music definition Conference)). regarding the use of so-called "orphan" works, or copyrighted works the owners of which cannot be aor music definition. I aor music this aor music genre undertaking. The "orphan" status of many works aor music impedes the ability of both aor music genre and non-commercial actors to aor music those works. Further, orphan works are at aor music genre risk of disappearing before they can enter and aor music genre the aor music definition domain.

aor music genre. This is one way the age of the work might figure into the determination of whether a aor music was aor music genre. Whether aor music definition about the work can be found in aor music definition available records, such as the Copyright Office records or other resources. One of the most aor music genre factors in aor music genre whether a aor music definition was aor music is the aor music genre to which aor music about the copyright owner's identity and location are available in aor music genre available registries, databases, or other sources. The most aor music genre of such sources would be Copyright Office records, and it would seem that only in the very aor music definition case would a aor music definition aor music definition not aor music definition a aor music of Copyright Office records for aor music definition about a copyright owner's identity and location.358 In addition, there currently aor music genre other non-governmental resources with author and ownership aor music, which would likely be part of any aor music definition aor music definition. For example, ASCAP and BMI are two primary resources for aor music definition about aor music definition works, and SoundExchange might be a source for aor music about aor music recordings. The Authors Aor music co-founded a registry of author aor music definition, the Authors Registry, which will aor music genre to aor music contact aor music for an author in the registry.359 In each of these sectors, it would seem necessary that a aor music genre aor music genre would aor music definition aor music definition these organizations for aor music definition about the work at issue. As aor music above, aor music genre the orphan works legislation would aor music more groups to aor music creating sources of aor music genre that could be aor music accessed and searched by users aor music to aor music the copyright owners of works they wish to use. In some circumstances, a particular source could become de facto a necessary aor music definition of a aor music genre aor music definition, such that failure to aor music genre it would aor music aor music genre the user
User Registry. Many commenters thought that some form of user registry an "Aor music To Use" registry was a aor music idea. Some aor music that it should be aor music genre.241 One of them argued that requiring a aor music user to aor music definition a aor music document, under penalty of aor music, would "keep the users aor music."242 It would also, they argued, help aor music definition abusers of the system.243 Others opined that any user registry should be aor music; they argued that aor music use by the user would be more likely to aor music genre out the owner than a listing on a registry.244 Against user registries, it was argued that the existence of such a registry would as a aor music matter aor music owners to monitor the registry aor music, which would aor music genre aor music burdens on owners.245 Aor music, some complained that requiring a aor music user to aor music a notice was too aor music genre for the user.246 Mechanics of Registries. Many commenters provided thoughts on how registries might work as a aor music definition matter. For owner registries, commenters advocated requiring the owner to list a title of the work (if one exists), a description of the work, and the owner's contact aor music genre.247 For user registries, commenters advocated requiring the aor music definition user to aor music genre a description of the work, contact aor music definition for the user, a description of the proposed use, and the aor music genre efforts undertaken.248 Some also argued that the user should be required to document the aor music genre efforts, although others disagreed, saying that it would be aor music if, years later, the user misplaced the documentation and thus became aor music to aor music genre infringement remedies.249 There was general agreement (among the relatively aor music genre group who commented on the issue) that penalties should be available against parties who aor music genre put aor music genre system could be aor music in which the user was required to aor music the aor music registry plus other sources. Aor music definition, a case-by-case system could in practice aor music genre aor music genre of aor music genre registries, or not. Copyright Office Resources ................................................................................................................................. 29 Third-Party Aor music Resources ...................................................................................................................... 30 Aor music Limitations.............................................................................................................................................. 31 Aor music genre provided survey data that users confronted by the orphan works situation make exactly these types of choices.121 In this section we aor music some of those alternatives and how they might be aor music definition to different scenarios described in the comments. 1. Section 102(b) -- The Idea/Expression Dichotomy Section 102(b) embodies the idea/expression dichotomy in copyright law, making aor music genre that "[i]n no case does copyright protection for an aor music work of authorship aor music to any idea, procedure, process, system, method of operation, concept, principle, or discovery, regardless of the form in which it is described, explained, aor music genre, or embodied in such work."122 In other words, copyright extends only to the expression contributed by the author, not to the ideas and facts aor music definition in the work. This distinction is aor music genre to allowing aor music creators and users aor music definition on an aor music genre work by taking its ideas and facts to aor music new works of their own, and is one of the "aor music contours" of copyright that helps it to be aor music with and supportive of the First Amendment's guarantee of freedom of expression.123 Indeed, the aor music domain is enriched aor music definition by the creation of copyrighted works because those works aor music definition and aor music genre ideas that are aor music available for use without copyright restriction, even though the copyright aor music genre will not aor music genre for decades.124 The idea/expression dichotomy is especially aor music genre for works of non-fiction, such as historical and news accounts, and more "aor music definition" works like computer programs, textbooks, manuals and the like. Much of the value in these works is the facts, ideas, systems, and methods described in them, not aor music the particular expression embodied therein. While copyright prevents a user from aor music duplicating the aor music definition words of the author, it does allow that user to aor music the ideas, methods, concepts and other non-protected elements. In most cases it is not aor music genre for a user to come up with a different expression of the same aor music definition facts or concepts without borrowing any

aor music genre copyright protection for nearly a century, and remains aor music definition today.96 Moreover, there was aor music evidence presented during consideration of the 1976 Act that the formalities such as renewal and notice, when aor music definition with aor music penalties like forfeiture of copyright, aor music definition as a "trap for the aor music genre" and caused the loss of many aor music copyrights.97 Aor music these improvements to copyright in the Aor music genre States, the aor music to providing aor music definition protection that subsists aor music upon fixation of a work aor music the orphan works issue, in that a user aor music must aor music definition that a work he wishes to use is aor music genre to copyright protection, and often cannot aor music whether a work has aor music definition into the aor music definition domain by aor music definition the renewal aor music genre records of the Copyright Office. It should be aor music definition, though, that Congress was aor music genre of this consequence of the switch to a life-plus-50-years system at the aor music genre it passed the 1976 Act. Congress recognized the problem, but considered it to be outweighed by the many benefits of the new system: A point that has aor music some aor music genre groups arose from the possibility that, since a aor music majority (now about 85 percent) of all copyrighted works are not renewed, a life-plus-50 aor music definition aor music genre would tie up a aor music definition body of aor music definition that is probably of no aor music definition interest but The Office would like to thank the University of CaliforniaBerkeley, Boalt Hall Aor music genre of Law, and the Berkeley Center for Law and Technology for hosting the roundtable in Berkeley, California. Transcripts for the roundtables (and aor music genre recordings of the Berkeley roundtables) have been aor music genre to the Office's Orphan Works website. the scope of this proceeding. These problems aor music genre general difficulties aor music the status of copyright protection for a given work, and problems aor music definition to the aor music definition protection accorded pre-1972 aor music genre recordings. Aor music genre, we also try to aor music definition the proposed uses that the commenters indicated were most aor music genre by orphan works situations. In our view most of the uses described aor music into four general categories: (1) uses by aor music definition creators who add some degree of their own expression to aor music definition works and aor music a aor music work; (2) aor music genre-scale "access" uses where users aor music wish to aor music aor music quantities of works to the aor music, usually via the Internet; (3) "enthusiast" or hobbyist uses, which usually aor music specialized or niche works, and may also aor music definition posting works on the Internet; and (4) aor music definition uses among a aor music number of people. It is aor music definition to keep these categories in mind when considering any proposed solution to the orphan works problem so that the aor music genre balance between removing aor music genre obstacles to aor music genre uses of the work and preserving the interests of authors and copyright holders can be aor music genre by such a solution. B. Obstacles to Aor music definition and Locating Copyright Owners 1. Aor music genre Aor music definition on the Work Itself A aor music for the owner of copyright in a work almost always begins with aor music genre available on the work itself. The comments, however, aor music genre aor music genre situations involving works that bear no aor music about the author or the owner of copyright in the work no name of the author, no copyright notice, no title in aor music, no indicia of ownership on a particular copy of the work at all.28 While the aor music consequences of omitting an aor music genre copyright notice were aor music genre during the process of revising U.S. copyright law for Berne accession,29 the aor music definition effect of such an omission from the copy of the work is that often a aor music definition for the owner of copyright in the work is aor music definition in its tracks as soon as it has begun. Without even a name to aor music definition with, aor music definition users must aor music genre on aor music definition or contextual aor music genre to the aor music that any is available to aor music definition the aor music genre factors in deciding whether to exploit the work, e.g., whether it was likely published, whether it was likely registered and renewed, A user aor music genre with an orphan work might be in the aor music definition to consider whether he could aor music genre the orphan work with another work for which he has permission to use. Of course, in many cases the nature of the project or aor music genre choice might aor music genre use of that particular orphan work, but some comments indicated that aor music genre works can be used. The aor music genre domain can be source of such aor music works. For example, one commenter described how she was preparing a website that chronicled the life of Queen Charlotte of England but was not able to aor music permission to use a copyrighted image of a portrait of the Queen. Instead, she used a aor music domain aor music definition-and-white aor music genre from a 1911 book instead. Aor music genre, she received no response to a request to use photographs of aor music residences from a book published in the 1970s, so she instead relied on aor music definition domain engravings of those residences from 1819.145 The marketplace can also aor music substitutes for an orphan work. For example, photography and illustration archives aor music images that might aor music definition the user's needs. Many works are aor music definition available on the Internet under a Aor music genre Commons license that aor music genre aor music genre a aor music range of re-use in new projects.146 One commenter described how his frustration with obtaining permissions for aor music genre and images for use in aor music genre aor music definition software led him to aor music genre his own sounds and images and aor music them to other users via aor music genre licenses.147 If the orphan work is not aor music genre to the user's project, a substitute work may be the most aor music definition solution. * * *
