A “work made for hire” is defined as (1) “a work prepared by an employee within the scope ofhis or her employment”; or (2) “a work specially ordered or commis-sioned for use as a contribution to a collective work, as a part of a motion picture or other audiovisual work, as a translation, as a supplementary work, as a compilation, as an instructional text, as atest, as answer material for a test, or as an atlas, if the parties expressly agree in a written instrument signed by them that the works shall be considered a work made for hire.” If you havechecked “Yes” to indicate that the work was “made for hire,” you must give the full legal name of the employer (or other person for whom the work was prepared). You may also include the name of theemployee along with the name of the employer (for example: “Elster Publishing Co., employer for hire of John Ferguson”). “Anonymous” or “Pseudonymous” Work: An author’s contri- bution to a work is “anonymous” if that author is not identified onthe copies or phonorecords of the work. An author’s contribution to a work is “pseudonymous” if that author is identified on the copiesor phonorecords under a fictitious name. If the work is “anonymous” you may: (1) leave the line blank; or (2) state “anonymous” on the line; or (3) reveal the author’s identity. If the work is “pseudony-mous” you may: (1) leave the line blank; or (2) give the pseudonym and identify it as such (for example: “Huntley Haverstock, pseud- onym”); or (3) reveal the author’s name, making clear which is thereal name and which is the pseudonym (for example, “Judith Barton, whose pseudonym is Madeline Elster”). However, the citizenship or domicile of the author must be given in all cases. Dates of Birth and Death: If the author is dead, the statute requires that the year of death be included in the application unlessthe work is anonymous or pseudonymous. The author’s birth date isoptional but is useful as a form of identification.

Nationality or domicile must be given in all cases. Nature of Authorship: After the words “Nature of Authorship,” give a brief general statement of the nature of this particularauthor’s contribution to the work. Examples: “Entire text”; “Coau-thor of entire text”; “Computer program”; “Editorial revisions”; “Compilation and English translation”; “New text.” General Instructions: Do not confuse “creation” with “publication.” Every application for copyright registration must state “the year in which creation of the work was completed.” Give the date and nation of first publication only if the work has been published. Creation: Under the statute, a work is “created” when it is fixed in a copy or phonorecord for the first time. Where a work has beenprepared over a period of time, the part of the work existing in fixedform on a particular date constitutes the created work on that date. The date you give here should be the year in which the author completed the particular version for which registration is now beingsought, even if other versions exist or if further changes or additions are planned. Publication: The statute defines “publication” as “the distribu- tion of copies or phonorecords of a work to the public by sale orother transfer of ownership, or by rental, lease, or lending.” A work is also “published” if there has been an “offering to distribute copiesor phonorecords to a group of persons for purposes of further distribution, public performance, or public display.” Give the full date (month, day, year) when, and the country where, publicationfirst occurred. If first publication took place simultaneously in the United States and other countries, it is sufficient to state “U.S.A.” Name(s) and Address(es) of Copyright Claimant(s): Give the name(s) and address(es) of the copyright claimant(s) in this work even if the claimant is the same as the author. Copyright in a work belongs initially to the author of the work (including, in the case of a work made for hire, the employer or other person forwhom the work was prepared). The copyright claimant is either the author of the work or a person or organization to whom the copy- right initially belonging to the author has been transferred. Transfer: The statute provides that, if the copyright claimant is not the author, the application for registration must contain “a briefstatement of how the claimant obtained ownership of the copy-right.” If any copyright claimant named in space 4 is not an author named in space 2, give a brief statement explaining how the claimant(s) obtained ownership of the copyright. Examples: “Bywritten contract”; “Transfer of all rights by author”; “Assignment”; “By will.” Do not attach transfer documents or other attachments or riders. General Instructions: The questions in space 5 are in- tended to show whether an earlier registration has been made for this work and, if so, whether there is any basis for a new registra- tion. As a general rule, only one basic copyright registration can bemade for the same version of a particular work. Same Version: If this version is substantially the same as the work covered by a previous registration, a second registration is notgenerally possible unless: (1) the work has been registered in unpublished form and a second registration is now being sought to cover this first published edition; or (2) someone other than the author is identified as copyright claimant in the earlier registra- tion, and the author is now seeking registration in his or her own name. If either of these two exceptions applies, check the appropriatebox and give the earlier registration number and date. Otherwise, do not submit Form TX. Instead, write the Copyright Office for infor- mation about supplementary registration or recordation of transfersof copyright ownership. Changed Version: If the work has been changed and you are now seeking registration to cover the additions or revisions, check the lastbox in space 5, give the earlier registration number and date, and complete both parts of space 6 in accordance with the instructions below. Previous Registration Number and Date: If more than one previous registration has been made for the work, give the numberand date of the latest registration. General Instructions: Complete space 6 if this work is a “changed version,” “compilation,” or “derivative work” and if it incorporates one or more earlier works that have already been published or registered for copyright or that have fallen into thepublic domain. A “compilation” is defined as “a work formed by the collection and assembling of preexisting materials or of data that are selected, coordinated, or arranged in such a way that the resultingwork as a whole constitutes an original work of authorship.” A “derivative work” is “a work based on one or more preexisting works.” Examples of derivative works include translations, fiction- alizations, abridgments, condensations, or “any other form in which a work may be recast, transformed, or adapted.” Derivative works also include works “consisting of editorial revisions, annotations, orother modifications” if these changes, as a whole, represent an original work of authorship. Preexisting Material (space 6a): For derivative works, complete this space and space 6b. In space 6a identify the preexisting work that has been recast, transformed, or adapted. The preexisting work may be material that has been previously published, previouslyregistered, or that is in the public domain. An example of preexisting material might be: “Russian version of Goncharov’s ‘Oblomov.’” Material Added to This Work (space 6b): Give a brief, general statement of the new material covered by the copyright claim forwhich registration is sought. Derivative work examples include: “Foreword, editing, critical annotations”; “Translation”; “Chapters 11-17.” If the work is a compilation, describe both the compilation itself and the material that has been compiled. Example: “Compila-tion of certain 1917 Speeches by Woodrow Wilson.” A work may beboth a derivative work and compilation, in which case a sample statement might be: “Compilation and additional new material.” Deposit Account: If you maintain a Deposit Account in the Copyright Office, identify it in space 7a.
