COPYRIGHT OFFICE ANNOUNCES CORRECTIONS AND ADDITIONS TO THE CURRENT
SYSTEMS OF RECORDS (64 FR 54361)
The Copyright Office is amending information contained in the list
of
its systems of records as last published on September 28, 1998.
Specifically, the Office is amending information concerning records
maintained on the agreements between the Library of Congress and
copyright owners of motion pictures. The Office is also amending the
notification procedures for several systems in order to establish
the
same procedure for accessing all systems. In addition, the Office is
adding to the list four additional systems of records that were
developed in the last year. Categories being added to the list
include
appeals of the Office's refusal to register a claim submitted by a
copyright claimant; records concerning an online service provider's
designation of an agent; records related to initial notices of
digital
transmissions of sound recordings; and records of notice of
designation as a collective.
