accompanied by the required deposit should be submitted. If, however, the work was first published without an acceptable copyright notice, the basic registration will be cancelled.

A published registration made in 1978 gives the date of publication as December 27, 1977. The applicant now states that the work was actually published on November 5, 1978. If the copies or phonorecords deposited in connection with the earlier registration were not of the best edition as of the effective date of that registration, a new basic registration should be made. If, however, the copies deposited earlier are the best editions as of the date of the first registration, a supplementary registration may be made to correct the date of publication.
1507.09
Problems relating to extent of claim. The Copyright Office will accept an application for supplementary registration in order to add, correct, or amplify a statement relating to the extent of claim which was omitted or given in error on the basic registration. Ordinarily, examination of the original deposit will be necessary.
1507.10
Problems relating to recorded documents. A supplementary registration is not appropriate to change the contents of a document previously recorded in the Copyright Office. See section 1505.02 above.
