QUESTION: What works are protected by copyright?


ANSWER:


Copyright protects "original works of authorship" that are fixed in a tangible form of expression. The fixation need not be directly perceptible so long as it may be communicated with the aid of a machine or device (e.g., a computer or CD player). Copyrightable works include the following categories:

  1. Literary works;

  2. Musical works, including any accompanying words;

  3. Dramatic works, including any accompanying music;

  4. Pantomimes and choreographic works;

  5. Pictorial, graphic, and sculptural works;

  6. Motion pictures and other audiovisual works;

  7. Sound recordings;

  8. Architectural works.


These categories are viewed broadly. For example, computer programs may be registered as "literary works"; maps and architectural plans may be registered as "pictorial, graphic, and sculptural works."
