Copyright Society of the U.S.A.
The Copyright Society of the US, now the Copyright Society, is the primary scholarly society dedicated to the study of copyright law.[1]
The Copyright Society of the USA was established in 1953, by a number of copyright scholars and lawyers including Charles B. Seton (1910–2005).
The Society publishes a long-running journal, the Journal of the Copyright Society.[2] The Society also hosts annual and midwinter meetings, as well as a variety of educational sessions in its regional chapters. The organization has fifteen chapters throughout the US and abroad, and is headquartered in New York City.[3] The Society hosts the annual "Donald C. Brace Memorial Lecture" (named after Donald Brace, one of the founders of the Harcourt, Brace & Co. publishing company),[4] and presents the annual "Seton Award" for scholarship by a young writer (under 40).[5]
