Copyright Registration Services for Authors and Book Creators
Protect Your Book. Secure Your Rights. Register with Confidence.
At Masterly Publishing, we understand that every book begins with a story—and behind that story is a creator who deserves recognition and legal protection. Our tailored copyright registration services are designed for aspiring and professional authors, entrepreneurs writing branded books, and creators of children’s books, memoirs, fiction, and non-fiction.
With our trusted team, registering your work with the U.S. Copyright Office becomes fast, reliable, and stress-free. Your book is more than just content—it’s intellectual property. Let us help you protect it.
What is Copyright Registration?
Copyright registration is the official process of recording your creative work—such as a book, poem, or manuscript—with the U.S. government. While your intellectual property rights are automatically protected the moment your work is written and saved in a tangible medium, official registration provides undeniable legal proof of ownership.
Why It Matters:
Grants you a registration certificate from the Copyright Office
Allows you to file a copyright claim in court, if needed
Makes your rights public, helping deter infringement
Offers stronger protections for unpublished works
Enables you to seek statutory damages and legal fees
Ensures your work is recorded with the Library of Congress
By working with Masterly Publishing, you won’t just submit a form—you’ll register, protect, and enforce your exclusive rights as a copyright owner.

Why Copyright Your Book?
Copyright law grants you ownership the moment your work is created and fixed in a tangible medium. But official registration offers vital protections.
What Copyright Registration Gives You:
- A registration certificate to prove copyright ownership
- Eligibility to claim statutory damages and attorney’s fees in court
- A legal record at the Library of Congress and copyright office
- Greater ability to enforce your rights and license your work
- Access to
international copyright registration services through the
Berne Convention
Registration also protects derivative works, ensures public record of your copyright claim, and builds credibility for publishers, partners, and readers.
What Copyright Protects in a Book
Books often contain more than text. Our services cover a wide range of copyrightable works, including:
Full-length literary works like novels, memoirs, and nonfiction
Children’s books with illustrations and storytelling components
Anonymous works or collaborations submitted as a group
Sound recordings or narration (for audiobooks)
Sheet music or lyrics included in storylines
Branded content for businesses and educational use
Visual art such as custom covers and interior graphics
Our team helps you complete your standard application, fulfill the deposit requirement, and navigate complex filings—whether you're submitting a single book or multiple works in the same package.

Ensuring Full Protection for Your Book’s Creation
Your manuscript is more than just pages—it's a powerful creation that deserves full protection from the moment it’s written to the day it’s published. At Masterly Publishing, we work to ensure your copyrighted work is registered correctly, with every detail handled on your behalf.
Once your original works are ready for publication—whether in print or digital format—you’ll need to file a completed application form with the U.S. Copyright Office. We prepare this for you and guide you through each step-by-step instruction to avoid delays or mistakes. Every submission is tailored to your unique subject, genre, and publishing plan.
What We Help You Protect
Works created in any medium: digital or physical
Published and unpublished manuscripts
Co-authored and ghostwritten works
Serialized blog content converted to books
Visual elements, diagrams, and branded designs
Exclusive materials included in author bundles or coursebooks
All works are registered under the authority of the Copyright Act, ensuring that your copyrighted work is legally recognized and enforceable. You retain the full legal right to reproduce, license, and protect your book worldwide.
How Long Does Copyright Last?
For individual authors, copyright typically lasts for the lifetime of the author plus 70 years—whichever expires later in joint authorship scenarios. Anonymous works, works for hire, and collaborative projects may have different timelines.
Proper registration ensures your book is protected now and for generations to come.
