Table of Contents

Introduction

Parts 12–13 list all registrations made in classes L and M for the period covered by this issue. An index of names and titles associated with the work is followed by the main entries, listed in order by registration number. Filing of the index is letter by letter, except in the case of inverted names which are filed up to the comma or parenthesis, after which letter by letter filing is resumed. Entries beginning with numbers which are not spelled out are filed at the end in numerical sequence.

The main entries include, when applicable, the following information derived from the work and application.

For published works whenever it is necessary to indicate a variation between the information given in the application and in the copy of the work with respect to the claimant’s name or the date of publication, the data from the application is given first, followed by the phrase “in notice” and the data given in the work; e.g., © John Doe; 10Jan77 (in notice: 1976).

For renewal registrations the original date of publication and registration number precede the name of the claimant of the renewal registration. Following the name of the renewal claimant is a statement in parentheses, usually abbreviated, giving the basis of the renewal claim as supplied by the application; e.g., “John Doe (A)” indicates that John Doe has made renewal claim as author.

Works deposited in connection with current copyright registrations may be selected for inclusion in the collections of the Library of Congress. Library of Congress printed cards are available for many of the published works so selected. Orders for such cards or inquiries concerning them should be addressed to the Catalog Distribution Service Division, Building No. 159, Navy Yard Annex, Washington, D.C. 20541.
