Shout out to the Copyright Office!
Back in the fall I noticed and blogged that the Copyright Office did not have an up-to-date version of the Copyright Act on its web site. The legal code was actually several years out of date. On Thanksgiving Day no less, they announced the launch of an updated version, and I've been meaning to post about it. Today I recorded a new podcast episode of This Week in the Law with Denise Howell as part of her panel, and gave a verbal shout out. So this post is to complete the thought with a blogger's thank you note!
Also if you're not overloaded you might want to subscribe to feeds or lists from the Library of Congress -- coverage includes Copyright Office information, digital preservation, poetry and other good stuff.
