Sponsored by the Copyright Society of the USA Thursday, April 4 at 1:45 pm – 3:15 pm ET In the Copyright Act of 1976 Congress extended the term of copyright protection and included two termination of transfer provisions that give authors the benefit of the extension. Since 1976, many factors have changed when it comes to the termination right. Where the termination right stands today including, when it is available, and how effective it is to the terminating author or his/ her heirs will be presented in this program.
