Copyright a Book

Writing a book is a tedious process and it sound completely logical to protect your hard work by choosing the right protection tool for the same. Seeking copyright protection is undoubtedly a great idea to safeguard the work that goes into writing a book. An author owns the copyright to a book the moment it is written—before publishing the book or looking at copyright registration.

Copyright prevents bookstores from buying one book from the author, making copies and then selling them to its customers. The customers are not just buying the book; they are buying the author’s intellectual property: the story, the characters and the setting.

The exact type of the copyright depends on the elements of the book. A phonebook has very little, if any, copyrightable material. It is regarded just a list of facts. A romantic novel has a lot of copyrightable material. Besides the pages of the book, copyright extends to the order of the plot, specific characters or elements of the broader world that it creates.

One can seek copyright the moment writing is done. To get the complete advantage of copyright for a book, one must register his copyright. Registration creates constructive notice…and constructive notice is incrediblyvital.

The process starts with the filing of an application for copyright registration. The filed registration application is assigned to a Copyright officer, who decides whether the application is accepted or rejected after inspecting it. After examination, there will be a waiting time of 30 days for any kind of objection to be filed against your claim. In case of an objection, the application would be called for a hearing before the hearing office where the applicant and the objecting party providesproof for their work. Based on the evidence and hearing the officer decides to accept or reject the Copyright registration.
