THE Catalogue of Copyright Entries is published in four parts. Part 1, Group 2, issued monthly, contains mainly the titles of pamphlets, leaflets, and literary contributions to periodicals, and all other productions registered under the legal designation "book" not found in Group 1 (issued weekly), including also, however, preliminary reports of court decisions, local directories, herd books, and other annuals, etc. The entries are arranged alphabetically by author, or, if anonymous, by title. An asterisk (*) after the author's name indicates that the author and copyright pro- prietor are the same. When the author and copyright proprietor are different, a sepa- rate statement is made at the end of the title, giving the proprietor and his address.
Group 2 also contains, in three separate alphabets, the titles of the entries made in Class "C," Lectures, sermons, addresses, prepared for oral delivery, which are arranged alphabetically by author; Class "D," Dramatic compositions, arranged alphabetically by title; and Class "F," Maps, arranged alphabetically by the subject word of each title.
Under the Act of March 4, 1909, in effect from July 1, 1909, the preliminary entry of titles has been abrogated and registration follows deposit of copies with an appli- cation for entry in the Copyright Office.
To save space in the Catalogue, the copyright notice after each title is abbreviated. The abbreviations used in this part are as follows: "A," Class A, Books; "A- Foreign," Foreign books in foreign languages; "C," Class C, Lectures, sermons, addresses, prepared for oral delivery; "D," Class D, Dramatic compositions; "F," Class F, Maps. "" implies copyright registration of a published work, followed by date of publication; " 1 c." stands for copyright of an unpublished work, fol- lowed by date of receipt in the Copyright Office of the printed or manuscript copy; and "2 c." for two copies, followed by the date of their receipt. In the case of contri- butions to periodicals only one copy of the issue or issues containing such contribu- tion is required. "A ad int." implies ad interim copyright registration, under the law of March 4, 1909, of a book published abroad in the English language, for which the deposit of only one copy is required.
A list of the books of which the subsisting copyright has been renewed and extended under Sec. 24 of the Act of March 4, 1909, will be found in Part 1, Group 1.
Each number contains an index of the names of all copyright proprietors; the names of well-known authors of pamphlets, occasionally the titles of anonymous pamphlets, and the names of all authors of dramatic compositions. The annual index, furnished with the December issue, supplies, in addition, the titles of all dramas and the subject words of all maps.
The annual subscription price for the Catalogue of Copyright Entries (received only for the calendar year), for Part 1, Groups 1 and 2, is $1.00 for 1911, payable in advance to the Superintendent of Documents, Washington, D. C., by postal money order, express order, or New York draft.
The Act of March 4, 1909, provides that the Catalogue of Copy- right Entries" shall be admitted in any court as prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein as regards any copyright registration."
