The United States Copyright Office (USCO), a part of the Library of Congress, is a United States government body that registers copyright claims, records information about copyright ownership, provides information to the public, and assists Congress and other parts of the government on a wide range of copyright issues.[1] It maintains online records of copyright registration and recorded documents within the copyright catalog, which is used by copyright title researchers who are attempting to clear a chain of title for copyrighted works.
The Register of Copyrights heads the Copyright Office. Shira Perlmutter is the 14th and current Register, since October 26, 2020.[2]
The Copyright Office is located in the James Madison Memorial Building of the Library of Congress, at 101 Independence Avenue SE, in Washington, DC.[3] While open to the general public, appointments must be made to visit the Public Information Office and Copyright Public Records Reading Room.
