According to the US Copyright Office:

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 should be viewed broadly. For example, computer programs and most "compilations" may be regis­tered as "literary works"; maps and architectural plans may be registered as "pictorial, graphic, and sculptural works.
