A Certificate of Live Birth is the same thing as a birth certificate. These are produced by the states, unless it is a certificate of live birth that is obtained from an official of a foreign government as proof of the US citizenship of a newborn when a US citizen gives birth outside the US. Some states will also provide this as a shortened version of another document called the long form birth certificate. It just use it to means the same thing in different words. If you contact your state's office of vital records they can likely tell you the process to get a copy of the "long form" if all you have is the short version and you need the additional detail or they can give you the information on how to obtain one.
Prior to the invention of copy machines clerks typed up new birth certificates by hand, usually, based on information provided by the souvenir hospital certificate which has no legal standing on it's own, then certified the typed copy this creating a legal certified birth certificate. When the copy machine was invented it became common practice to simply copy the souvenir hospital certificate and certify that, thus also making a legal certified birth certificate. Now in the computer age when everything is computerized it is common practice to print out a form with the necessary information and certify that. All of them are valid, legal, certified birth certificates except the original hospital certificate which has not been certified by the issuing state.
