Copyright Copyright protects works that are in a physical form such as poetry, movies, CD- ROMs, video games, videos, plays, paintings, sheet music, recorded music performances, novels, software code, sculptures, photographs, choreography and architectural designs. Copyright does not protect ideas or facts. Works are automatically copyrighted when created, but you can also register your work in case you need to sue for infringement (Standford University Libraries)

Copyright For works published after 1977 copyright lasts for the life of the author plus 70 years Works published after 1922, but before 1978 are protected for 95 years from the date of publication Works published before 1922 are not copyrighted The work is considered published when the author makes it available to the public (Stanford University Libraries)

Public Domain Works in the public domain are not protected by intellectual property laws so they are free to use without permission. Works published before 1923 are in public domain Works published between 1923 and 1964 for which copyrights were not renewed are in public domain (renewal was a requirement for works published before 1978) Some works fell into the public domain because they were published without a copyright notice (necessary before 1989) Some works are in the public domain because the owner has made them available to the public without copyright protection (Stanford University Libraries)

Fair Use Fair use is a legal doctrine that allows the public to make limited uses of copyrighted works without permission. Courts apply a four factor test of fair use to determine if someone has violated copyright law (1) the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes; (2) the nature of the copyrighted work; (3) the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; and (4) the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work.
