Contributions to periodicals and composite works. (cont'd)
1310.01
First publication basis.(cont'd)
Example:
A renewal application covering a short story which appeared in BEST SHORT STORIES, an anthology of previously published materials, will not be registered since the short story was not first published in the anthology.
1310.02
Separate claims. Individual renewal copyright in contributions to periodicals and other composite works may be registered, whether or not they were separately registered for their original term of copyright. Where the individual contribution was not separately registered, a claim to copyright in the periodical or other composite work must have been registered to serve as a basis for renewal registration of the individual contribution.
1310.03
Identification of composite work. A renewal application covering a contribution which was not registered separately must clearly identify the periodical or other composite work in which the contribution appeared. Generally, a composite work is an original publication relating to a variety of subjects to which a number of different authors have contributed distinguishable and separable selections: in this connection, see also section 1317.04(a) below.
1310.03(a)
Facts of original registration required. The renewal application must contain the facts of original registration, e.g., title of periodical, volume and 1ssue number, issue date and original registration date, in addition to the publication date for the periodical or other work. Where the work cannot be fully identified from the renewal application and Copyright Office records, correspondence may be necessary. All other statements on the renewal application are taken at face value unless a patent error or ambiguity is presented.
