             Copyright Office Amends Public Hearing Schedule (68 FR 19966)
                                on DMCA Section 1201
                          <http://www.copyright.gov/1201/>

         Washington DC: May 1, May 2 & May 9 - 1333 H Street, N.W. (3rd Floor)
                   Los Angeles: May 14 and 15 - UCLA Law School

    The Copyright office has changed the dates for the public hearings on the
    "possible exemptions to the prohibition against circumvention of
    technological measures that control access to copyrighted works." Instead
    of April 15 and April 30, the Copyright Office has scheduled the hearings
    for Thursday, May 1,
    2003, and Friday, May 9, 2003. The Los Angeles scheule (May 14 and 15
    remains unchanged).
