CCC Copyright Basics

According to the U.S. Copyright Office, which is part of the Library of Congress, copyright is a protection which subsists:

…in original works of authorship fixed in any tangible medium of expression, now known or later developed, from which they can be perceived, reproduced, or otherwise communicated, either directly or with the aid of a machine or device.

According to U.S. copyright law:

In no case does copyright protection for an original work of authorship extend to any idea, procedure, process, system, method of operation, concept, principle, or discovery, regardless of the form in which it is described, explained, illustrated, or embodied in such work.

The law gives the creator five different rights. The right to:

• Reproduce
• Create a derivative work
• Distribute
• Perform
• Display

Once a person has created an original work and fixed it in a tangible medium, the law gives the creator these five rights.

A work created today is protected by copyright for the life of the creator plus 70 years.
