SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On October 14, 2008, the Copyright Office 
published a notice of proposed rulemaking to inform the public that the 
Copyright Office of the Library of Congress is considering adoption of 
new fees for registration of claims, special services and Licensing 
Division services, and that the Office intends to submit a schedule of 
proposed new statutory fees and fees for certain other services to 
Congress. (73 FR 60658 October 14, 2008)
    The NPRM contained three charts which included a comparison of 
existing fees and the proposed new fees. Due to a printing problem, a 
substantial portion of the text was missing from the charts entitled 
``Special services'' and ``Licensing Division services,'' and a 
correction document was issued by the Federal Register on October 23, 
2008. (73 FR 63111) The Office is now extending the comment deadline to 
provide a 30 day period to consider all the fees, including those 
published for the first time in the correction.
    The cost study which provides the basis for the proposed fee 
changes is posted on the Office's website at: http://www.copyright.gov/reports/fees2008.pdf.

    Dated: October 28, 2008.
Tanya Sandros,
General Counsel.
