"Motion pictures and filmstrips, 1978" by Library of Congress. Copyright Office. is a government bibliographic catalog written in the late 20th century. It compiles official copyright registrations for motion pictures and filmstrips from the first half of that year, explains the structure of the new Fourth Series established under the 1976 Copyright Act, and presents standardized bibliographic and rights data for each work. The opening of the volume sets out the legal authority and purpose of the Fourth Series, explains its eight-part organization and the administrative classes (TX, PA, VA, SR, RE), and describes filing, indexing, and deposit practices, including how unpublished and supplementary registrations are interfiled. It details the precise elements included in a basic entry (title, edition, publication data, physical description, series, notes, cast, credits) and in the “copyright facts” block (claimant, authorship notes, new matter, creation and publication dates, registration number), as well as rules for handling variances in notices. After listing contributors, it launches the “Current registrations” section, which begins alphabetically with numerous televised news magazines (notably many episodes of 60 Minutes), corporate promotional and comparison films from automakers, educational filmstrips and videos, documentaries, and other screen works, each accompanied by format, credits, claimants, and registration particulars.
