How to: Register a work as a copyright info provider

Safe Creative partners can register third party works as copyright information providers. This can be useful, for example, for a library to register works in the public domain. Such works can be submitted to the Safe Creative Copyright Registry services to leverage its search and semantic capabilities.

To register a work as a copyright information provider, work.register component must be called with userinformer=1

Authors names must be provided in three separate parameters: authorfirstnameN, authormiddlenameN and authorlastnameN. You can provide more than one author as authorfirstname1, authorfirstname2, etc. The number of provided first, middle and last names must be the same.

Copyright holders names are provided through parameters rightsholderfirstnameN, rightsholdermiddlenameN and rightsholderlastnameN.
