How To Copyright Serial and Periodical Works
If you are trying to register any type of newspaper, magazine or other periodically occurring work you should follow the copyright process as explained here. Serial and periodical works can generally be described as any work issued in parts that can be chronologically tracked by a numeric or alphabetical series.
The first step is to make sure that what you are registering is a serial/periodical work. In addition to the listed items above, the following also can be categorized as serial/periodical works. There are four forms for this category of copyright form SE, short form SE, form SE/Group and form G/DN. If you are registering a singular issue you can use either form SE or short form SE. Form SE/Group is used for a group of publications that were published in one three month period and created no more than one calendar year from the date of publication. For example a comic book could fall into this category. Form G/DN should be used for a daily newspaper if each issue is a new all collective work and is a work made for hire. Form G/DN should be used for a newsletter if each issue is a all new collective work and each work is a work made for hire.
The second step is to put together a package the appropriate form, a check for the filing fee made out to the "Register of Copyrights" and a non-returnable copy of the materials that are being registered. The forms can all be obtained at the copyright offices website at www.copyright.gov under the serials/periodicals tab. The filing fees are…
· Single Issue $30
· Group Registration $15 per issue ($45 minimum)
· Group Registration of Newspapers or Newsletters $55
Finally address the package to…

How To Copyright Sound Recordings
If you are trying to register any type of sound recording you should follow the copyright process as explained here. Sound recordings can generally be described as any recording of music, drama or lecture.
The first step is to make sure that what you are registering is a sound recording. In addition to the listed items above sound recordings can be "works that result from a fixation of a series of musical, spoken, or other sounds but not including the sounds accompanying a motion picture or other audiovisual work". It is important to understand the difference between a sound recording copyright and a performing art copyright. The sound recording copyright is intended to be used to copyright a recording and the words underneath. A sound recording copyright is also appropriate for a kit that includes written material with a sound recording of some kind. For example a lecture on tape that includes a workbook would fall into this category under multimedia kits.
The second step is to put together a package including either a form. A check for $30 made out to the "Register of Copyrights" and a non-returnable copy of the materials that are being registered. The form SR can be obtained at the copyright offices website at www.copyright.gov under the sound recordings tab.
