In the United States, a copyright notice generally consists of these elements::

1. the © symbol (in some cases (c) is substituted), the word "Copyright" or abbreviation "Copr.";

2. the first year of publication; and

3. the owner of the copyright, either by name, abbreviation, or other designation.

Must a copyrighted symbol be displayed to protect the copyright?

In the USA and more than 160 other countries of the Berne Union, the answer is that no copyright notice is necessary. This has been the law in the USA since 1989, meaning that things published prior to that, by US authors in the USA, were required to have copyright "notice", whether using the word "copyright", "copr." or the copyright symbol, followed by the publication date, followed by the name of the copyright owners. Laws for Copyright notice in other countries may vary.


What is the best way to contact copyright owners when you are seeking permission to use their work?

You just use the contact information in any copyright notice associated with the work and then you can call them or send them a mail. sometimes you could even search for their contact information on Google® Search, or similar. For example, a publisher of a book or sound recording may not actually own the copyright, but they will certainly have contact information for those who do, perhaps through an agent. If you want a license to use music, you might also try ASCAP or BMI, which represent millions of titles. Some copyright owners have also registered their copyrights. In the USA, the Copyright Office maintains an online database that you can search for information about the owners of a particular copyright. Countries with voluntary registration systems include the UK, Italy, Spain, Brazil, and more than 40 others.
