What is “Copyright Notice”?
Although no longer necessary, notice on copyrighted material avoids any uncertainty that it is copyrighted. The four elements of Notice are the copyright symbol, the term “Copyright”, the year of copyright, the name of the copyright holder, and the phrase “All Rights Reserved”. For example: Copyright © 2005 David M. Adler, Esq. All Rights Reserved However, items like Ideas, Facts, Titles, Names, Short phrases, and Blank forms are not eligible for copyright protection.
