Copyright (symbol ©) is used to give notice that a work is covered by copyright.
Year of copyright:
The year(s) of copyright are listed after the © symbol. If the work has been modified (i.e., a new edition) and recopy-righted, there will be more than one year listed.
How long Copyrights last?
Copyright subsists for a variety of lengths in different jurisdictions, with different categories of works and the length it subsists for also depends on whether a work is published or unpublished. In most of the world the default length of copyright for many works is either life of the author plus 50 years, or life of the author plus 70 years. Copyright in general always expires at the end of the year concerned, rather than on the exact date of the death of the author.
