Preface
The CATALOG OF COPYRIGHT ENTRIES is published by authority of sections 210 and 211 of Title 17 of the _United States Code_. Section 210 provides in part: “The current catalog of copyright entries and the index volumes herein provided for shall be admitted in any court as prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein as regards any copyright registration.”
The _Catalog_ is subdivided into parts corresponding to the classes of material listed in section 5 of Title 17 of the _United States Code_. The table at the end of this preface shows the organization of the _Catalog_, the symbols used with the registration numbers to identify the classes, and the prices of the semiannual or annual issues.
The record of each copyright registration listed in the _Catalog_ includes a description of the work copyrighted and data relating to the copyright claim (the name of the copyright claimant as given in the application for registration, the copyright date, the copyright registration number, etc.).
For a more complete description of the contents of this issue of the _Catalog_ see p. vii.
Information as to changes of copyright ownership is not included in the _Catalog_, but a search of the Copyright Office Assignments and Related Documents Indexes may be requested from the Register of Copyrights. A fee for the search and report will be estimated at the statutory rate of $5 per hour.
For each registration listed, except for renewals, there has been deposited a copy or copies of the work in accordance with the provisions contained in sections 12, 13, 14, or 215 of Title 17 of the _United States Code_.
Orders, payable in advance, for all parts of the _Catalog of Copyright Entries_ should be sent to the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402. Orders may be placed for individual issues, as subscriptions for one or more parts, or for the complete _Catalog_ at $50 a year, for periods of one, two, or three years. All orders should state clearly the title and the inclusive dates of the part wanted. Checks or money orders should be made payable to the Superintendent of Documents.
The Copyright Office welcomes inquiries, suggestions, and comments on the content and organization of the _Catalog_. Such communications should be addressed to the Chief of the Cataloging Division, Copyright Office, Library of Congress, Washington, D.C. 20559.
Organization of Parts
Each part listed in the following table records all current registrations in the class or classes indicated by the alphabetical symbols. Renewal registrations are listed separately at the end of each related part. Some parts also contain registrations made under symbols other than those listed for the particular part, if the subject matter or type of material is similar to that generally included in the part.
The first letter of the symbol is that of the class under which registration is made. Second and third letters, if any, that follow the initial letter are added by the Copyright Office for the purpose of statistical analysis. Their significance is as follows:
F Published foreign works. In the case of books and periodicals, it designates works manufactured outside the United States (except those registered for ad interim copyright). In all other classes to which it applies, it designates works first published outside the United States, the authors of which are neither citizens nor domiciliaries of the United States. (AF, EF)
I Books and periodicals registered for ad interim copyright. (AI, BI)
O Published works of foreign origin registered under the waiver-of-fee provision (section 215 of Title 17 of the _United States Code_). (BIO, GFO)
P Domestic published works in classes for which registration is possible for either published or unpublished works. (EP, JP)
U Unpublished works in classes for which registration is possible for either published or unpublished works. (DU, EU)
