Twenty-Sixth Horace S. Manges Lecture, Columbia University Law School, 3/4/13
Maria A. Pallante, U.S. Register of Copyrights; The Next Great Copyright Act:
"Tonight my topic is the next great copyright act, but before I speak about the
future, I would like to talk a little about the past, including the role of the Copyright
Office in past revision activities. In my remarks, I will address the need for
comprehensive review and revision of U.S. copyright law, identify the most
significant issues, and suggest a framework by which Congress should weigh the
public interest, which includes the interests of authors. I will also address the
necessary evolution of the Copyright Office itself."
