Copyright renewals for 1957

Copyright renewals made in 1957 will be available from this page. Renewals in 1957 were classified by category.

Original copyrights date from 1929 and 1930. 1929 copyrights could also be renewed in 1956, and 1930 copyrights could also be renewed in 1958.

The following types of renewal records will be available here:

• Books and Submissions to Periodicals (133 pages)
• Periodicals (14 pages)
• Drama (?? pages)
• Artwork and photographs (? pages)

Copyright renewals also exist for music, film, commercial prints, and certain other categories. We have no immediate plans to digitize these, since we're mainly interested in book renewals at this point. If you want to digitize these, though, contact onlinebooks@pobox.upenn.edu.

A guide to abbreviations used in the records is now available. Other introductory information was in the catalogs, but is not available online at this time. To find out more about researching copyright renewals, see this page.
