[Docket No. RM 98-9]
Privacy Act of 1974: Current Systems of Records
AGENCY: Copyright Office, Library of Congress.
ACTION: Notice of current systems of records and of establishment of
new systems of records.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Copyright Office is publishing a list of its systems of
records with descriptions of the records and the ways they are
maintained, as is required by the Privacy Act of 1974. This updates the
list published August 16, 1993, and reflects changes, additions and
deletions of records maintained by the Office since the last
publication of systems of records. This will enable members of the
public who wish to access information the Office maintains to make
accurate and specific requests for such information.
DATES: Comments should be received on or before November 1, 1998. These
systems of records will become effective November 1, 1998, unless the
Copyright Office publishes notice to the contrary.
ADDRESSES: Interested persons should submit ten copies of their written
comments: If by mail to Office of General Counsel, Copyright Office,
Library of Congress, Washington, DC 20559-6000. By hand to: Office of
General Counsel, Copyright Office, Library of Congress, James Madison
Memorial Building, LM 403, 1st and Independence Avenue, SE.,
Washington, DC 20559-6000.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Marilyn J. Kretsinger, Assistant
General Counsel, or Patricia L. Sinn, Senior Attorney, Copyright
Office, Library of Congress, Washington, DC 20559-6000. Telephone:
(202) 707-8380. Fax: (202) 707-8366.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Copyright Office periodically reviews
and reports the systems of records it maintains, as directed by terms
of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), title 5 of the United States
Code. See 5 U.S.C. 552a(e)(4). The APA applies to certain Copyright
Office activities
[[Page 51610]]
described in title 17, United States Code, section 701(d). The Office
last published its systems of records August 16, 1993.
This publication of the Copyright Office systems of records
reflects changes in the records maintained in the Office in light of:
(1) Its new functions and duties under the Uruguay Round Agreements
Act, Pub. L. 103-465, 108 Stat. 4809, 4976 (1994); (2) its new
functions and duties under the Copyright Royalty Tribunal Reform Act,
Pub. L. 103-198, 107 Stat. 2304 (1993) and (3) deletions or additions
to existing file systems. The Uruguay Round Agreements Act added a new
section 104A to the Copyright Act of 1976 establishing a procedure for
restoration of copyright in certain works that had fallen into the
public domain in the United States. Filings of notices of intent to
restore copyrights in such works are received by the Office and
recorded as records maintained here for reference. The Office is
identifying as a new file CO-27 ``Notices of Intent to Enforce
Copyrights Restored Under the Uruguay Round Agreements Act. The
Copyright Royalty Tribunal Reform Act created a new system of Copyright
Arbitration Royalty Panels to administer copyright compulsory licensing
provisions in sections 111, 114, 115, 118, 119, and Chapter 10. Files
containing related information and documentation can be found in CO-11-
CO-23.
The Office is making available as separate file systems: CO-9
``Freedom of Information Act Annual Reports,'' CO-24 ``Licensing
Division File of Specialty Station Claimants,'' and CO-28 ``Requests
for Copyright Office Litigation Statements.'' It is also deleting
several files that it no longer maintains; these files were formerly
titled ``Master Index Card Files,'' ``Office Mailing List Files,'' ``
Secondary Transmission by Cable Systems: Initial Notice of Identity and
Changes Files,'' and ``Jukebox License Application.''
