Course Announcements

• The casebook has now been delivered to the bookstore. The statutory supplement has been ordered and should arrive early in the week of August 25, 2003. You can find a web version of the present copyright code at www.copyright.gov/title17/ and a copy of the 1909 copyright code at www.kasunic.com/1909_act.htm or www.megalaw.com/top/copyright/1909cact.php.
• The material in Chapter 1 of the casebook is background material that you should read soon, preferably before the first class.
• For the first class, August 27, I plan to discuss the material on pp. 67-81 fairly quickly, and then concentrate on the material found on pp. 101-111 of the casebook (the Burrow-Giles case and the Bleistein case).
