U.S. Copyright Renewals, 1960 January - June

"U.S. Copyright Renewals, 1960 January - June" is a comprehensive reference work that chronicles copyright renewal registrations made between January and June of 1960. The book is likely a product of the mid-20th century, reflecting the evolving landscape of intellectual property during that time. Its central focus is on generating a detailed alphabetical list of various works, including books, pamphlets, and serials along with the relevant information for both original and renewed registrations, providing a vital resource for researchers and librarians interested in copyright history. The opening of this work introduces the organizational structure of the list that follows, noting the arrangement is primarily alphabetical by author or title. It also highlights the inclusion of detailed registration information—such as dates, authors, and descriptions—creating a thorough header that sets the tone for the data provided in the subsequent pages. As this is just the beginning, it primarily outlines the process and intentions behind documenting these renewals without delving into the specific titles or authors that will be detailed later in the publication. The content aims to facilitate access to information about works that retained copyright protections during this significant period. (This is an automatically generated summary.)

The United States Copyright Office (USCO), a part of the Library of Congress, is a United States government body that registers copyright claims, records information about copyright ownership, provides information to the public, and assists Congress and other parts of the government on a wide range of copyright issues. It maintains online records of copyright registration and recorded documents within the copyright catalog, which is used by copyright title researchers who are attempting to clear a chain of title for copyrighted works.
