ACTION: Final rule. AGENCY: The U.S. Copyright Office is amending its regulation governing the group registration option for newspapers. The final rule will make a number of changes to reflect current Office practices, improve the efficiency of the registration process, and encourage broader participation in the registration system by reducing the burden on applicants. Specifically, the final rule revises the definition of ‘‘newspaper issues’’ and clarifies that the group registration option may be used to register any qualifying ‘‘newspaper issue.’’ The final rule will also require applicants to file an online application rather than a paper application, and upload a complete digital copy of each issue through the Office’s electronic registration system instead of submitting them in physical form. Digital copies of newspapers received by the Office under this group registration option will be offered to the Library of Congress for use in its collections, and the Library intends to provide public access to these digital files, subject to the restrictions set forth in the final rule. Applicants may continue to submit their issues on SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00014 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 microfilm on a voluntary basis (in addition to and at the same time as submitting digital files) if the microfilm is received by December 31, 2019. After that date, the microfilm option will be eliminated. The final rule clarifies that each issue in the group must be a new collective work and a work made for hire, that the author and copyright claimant for each issue must be the same person or organization, and that the claim must be received within three months after the publication of the earliest issue in the group. Finally, the rule confirms that a group registration covers each issue in the group, as well as any contributions appearing within each issue if they are fully owned by the copyright claimant and if they were first published in those issues. DATES: Effective March 1, 2018. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Robert J. Kasunic, Associate Register of Copyrights and Director of Registration Policy and Practice, or Erik Bertin, Deputy Director of Registration Policy and Practice, by telephone at 202–707– 8040, or by email at rkas@loc.gov and ebertin@loc.gov; or Anna Bonny Chauvet, Assistant General Counsel, by telephone at 202–707–8350, or by email at achau@loc.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: When Congress enacted the Copyright Act of 1976 (the ‘‘Act’’), it authorized the Register of Copyrights (the ‘‘Register’’) to specify by regulation the administrative classes of works for the purpose of seeking a registration, and the nature of the deposits required for each such class. In addition, Congress granted the Register the discretion to allow groups of related works to be registered with one application and one filing fee. See 17 U.S.C. 408(c)(1). Congress cited ‘‘the various editions or issues of a daily newspaper’’ as a specific example of a ‘‘group of related works’’ that would be suitable for a group registration. H.R. Rep. No. 94– 1476, at 154 (1976), reprinted in 1976 U.S.C.C.A.N. 5659, 5770; S. Rep. No. 94–473, at 136 (1975). On November 6, 2017, the Copyright Office (the ‘‘Office’’) published a notice of proposed rulemaking (‘‘NPRM’’) setting forth proposed amendments to the current regulation governing the group registration option for newspapers. 82 FR 51369 (Nov. 6, 2017). The NPRM proposed modifying the requirements for this group registration option in several respects. First, the proposed rule would make any newspaper, as defined in the regulation, eligible for a group registration, regardless of whether the Library of Congress (the ‘‘Library’’) has selected E:\FR\FM\30JAR1.SGM 30JAR1
