Library of Congress January 3, 2024 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

Group Registration of Updates to a News Website
Document Number: 2023-28724
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2024-01-03
Agency: Library of Congress, Agencies and Commissions, Copyright Office
The U.S. Copyright Office is proposing to create a new group registration option for frequently updated news websites. The rapid pace at which many web-based materials are created and updated presents a challenge for copyright registrants. This challenge is especially pronounced for frequently updated news websites. This option will enable online news publishers to register a group of updates to a news website as a collective work with a deposit composed of identifying material representing sufficient portions of the works, rather than the complete contents of the website. The Office invites comment on this proposal and the questions below.
