Copyright Office Further Extends Timing Adjustments for Persons Affected by the COVID-19 Emergency NewsNet 904 July 9, 2021 The Copyright Office is further extending temporary adjustments to certain timing provisions under the Copyright Act for persons affected by the COVID-19 national emergency. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act authorizes the Register of Copyrights to temporarily adjust statutory deadlines for copyright owners and other affected parties if she determines that a national emergency declared by the President is generally disrupting the normal operation of the copyright system. Under this authority, the Copyright Office previously announced adjustments relating to certain registration claims and notices of termination. These emergency modifications previously were set to continue through July 10, 2021. In light of the ongoing national emergency, however, the Register is extending these modifications for up to an additional sixty days, through September 8, 2021. For additional information, please visit the Office's Coronavirus page. The Copyright Office Public Information Office is available for questions through our website at copyright.gov/help or by phone at (202) 707-3000 or 1-877-476-0778 (toll-free). For more information on COVID-19 generally, please visit coronavirus.gov, CDC.gov/coronavirus, and USA.gov/coronavirus.
