Copyright Office Reviews Fees, Request Comments
Issue No. 448 - January 24, 2012


The Copyright Office is reviewing the fees it charges for services and will publish a proposed revised fee schedule in spring 2012.

(1) With respect to the basic registration fee, should special consideration be provided to individual author-claimants registering a single work?
