The Increasing Cost Of Copyright

The Copyright Office plans to increase the cost of copyright registration by an average of 41%.

How do you feel about that?  If you have registered your own copyrights in the last 5 years, The Copyright Alliance would like your anonymous feedback before August 17th, to help them craft a written response to the Copyright Office that accurately represents the views of American creators.

The deadline for the anonymous survey is August 17th, 2018.

Karyn A. Temple, blogging on the Library of Congress site, explains the thinking behind the new fee increases.
