Copyright Law

Copyright is a type of intellectual property recognized by Federal law that gives the owner the exclusive right to reproduce, distribute copies, display, perform, and create derivative works of creative literary, musical, dramatic, pictorial, and sculptural works.


Books


Books are the most common type of copyright that come to mind and can protect the rights of the author.

Art


Copyrights in art prevent the artwork from being copied and disseminated, ultimately harming the artist.
