+ The combined elements bear a single title identifying the collection
as a whole;

+ The copyright claimant in all the elements and in the collection as
a whole is the same; and

+ All the elements are by the same author, or, if they are by
different authors, at least one of the authors has contributed
copyrightable authorship to each element. An unpublished collection

the title of the collection.


*NOTE*: A *Library of Congress Catalog Card Number* is different from
a copyright registration number. The Cataloging in Publication (CIP)
Division of the Library of Congress is responsible for assigning LC
Catalog Card Numbers and is operationally separate from the Copyright
Office. A book may be registered in or deposited with the Copyright
Office but not necessarily cataloged and added to the Library's
collections. For information about obtaining an LC Catalog Card
Number, see the following homepage: [http://lcweb2.loc.gov/pcn]. For
