Recordation of documents: procedures used for correcting and amplifying Copyright Office records. (cont'd)
1505.03
Recordation of documents: effect. Generally, where a supplementary registration is prefer­able, but the sender submits a document for recordation, the Copyright Office will corres­pond with the sender, pointing out that no annotation will be made on the application for the basic registration. If the sender persists in requesting recordation, the document will be recorded.
1506
New basic registration: procedures used for correcting and amplifying Copyright Office records. Ordinarily, when an app11cant wishes to correct or amplify a copyright registration, a supplementary registration is suggested. However, in some instances, a supplementary registration is not appropriate, as explained in section 1507 below, and the Copyright Office will suggest that a new basic registration be made.
1506.01

New basic registration: time limits. A new basic original registration may be made, if otherwise appropriate, at any time within the life of the copyright. A new basic renewal registration must generally be made within one

year prior to the expiration of the original term of copyright. See Chapter 1300: RENEWAL OF COPYRIGHT.
1506.02
New basic registration: effect. A basic registration generally stands by itself. Where, however, a new basic registration is made to correct an earlier basic registration, the earlier basic registration will be anno­tated to reflect the later registration.
