FAQs Related To Reproduction & Copyright Topics

Question: Can I file online?

Answer: Not at the moment. Online registration is among the goals of the Copyright Office’s reengineering program and is expected to be available for use by the public sometime in the future.



Question: How is a copyright different from a patent or a trademark?

Answer: Copyright protects original works of authorship, while a patent protects inventions or discoveries. Ideas and discoveries are not protected by the copyright law, although the way in which they are expressed may be. A trademark protects words, phrases, symbols, or designs identifying the source of the goods or services of one party and distinguishing them from those of others.

 

Question: Can I backup my computer software?

Answer: Yes, under certain conditions as provided by section 117 of the Copyright Act. Although the precise term used under section 117 is archival copy, not backup copy, these terms today are used interchangeably.

Copyrights FAQs

Question: Why should I register my work if copyright protection is automatic?


Answer: Registration is recommended for a number of reasons. Many choose to register their works because they wish to have the facts of their copyright on the public record and have a certificate of registration. Registered works may be eligible for statutory damages and attorney's fees in successful litigation. Finally, if registration occurs within 5 years of publication, it is considered prima facie evidence in a court of law.
