Do I need a copyright page for my self published book?

The copyright page is most commonly found on the back of the book's title page. The copyright page is standard in any book — where it's poetry, fiction, nonfiction, memoir, or comic. Self-published books are no different, so they should include a copyright page.

The long copyright page should include the following:

1. A copyright notice and year

The copyright symbol ("©") should go next to the copyright owner's name. It should look like, "© 2017 by Jane Doe," or can be spelled out "Copyright © 2017 Jane Doe." The copyright owner is the author of the book, not the publisher or the printer. If any company requires that they be the copyright holder, don't publish with them. It's your work, regardless of who is printing it. If you use a pen name (also known as a pseudonym), you can put that on the copyright page instead of your real name. However, when registering your copyright with the U.S. Copyright Office, be sure to include both names on the form (pen name and legal name) since it is a legal document. The copyright year is the year you receive your copyright. If the book is reprinted into new editions, the copyright will list all of the edition years, starting with the latest. For example, if you first published a book in 2012, but published more editions in 2014 and 2017, it would read as such: "Copyright © 2017, 2014, 2012." Be sure that the copyright year is the year your book is published, not written. Your copyright will last for the duration of your lifetime plus an additional 70 years. After that, the work is considered public domain.

2. Rights reserved notice

The rights reserved notice states that the copyright holder (author) reserves all rights to reproduce the book or portions of the book. This phrase was created in the early 20th century at the Buenos Aires Copyright Convention, and it is technically no longer needed, as owning a copyright means that the author holds all the rights. It's still used in books, however, as a formality. You can go as simple as stating, "All rights reserved," or you can expand upon it: All rights reserved, including the right to reproduce this book or portions thereof in any form whatsoever. For information, address the publisher. All rights reserved. This book or parts thereof may not be reproduced in any form, stored in any retrieval system, or transmitted in any form by any means—electronic, mechanical, photocopy, recording, or otherwise—without prior written permission of the publisher, except as provided by United States of America copyright law. For permission requests, write to the publisher, at "Attention: Permissions Coordinator," at the address below.

Any of these will do, it just comes down to your preference.

3. ISBN

An ISBN (International Standard Book Number) is necessary if you plan to sell your book. ISBN are always 13 digits long, and the numbers correspond with regional codes, particular publishers, editions, etc. The ISBN is merely an identifier for your book; it has no legal weight. If you don't plan on selling your book, then there's really no need for an ISBN. If you do plan on selling your book, however, you'll need one for most retailers. If your book comes in more than one format (say, paperback and hardcover) you'll need different ISBNs for each. You can purchase an ISBN through Bowker. It's easy to buy an ISBN (or several, if you have several books) online and assign them to your books via your online account. Just as with the copyright, you should be the owner of the ISBN number, not your printer or publisher, so be sure to buy it from Bowker only.

4. Library of Congress Control Number

The Library of Congress Control Number (LCCN) is free to obtain (you can apply online) and shows that your book exists. It's necessary should you want to have it shelved in libraries, since libraries won't accept a book unless it has a LCCN. If you don't want your book in a library (if you just want to sell it or give it to friends and family members as gifts), there's really no need to go through the process of registering your book with the Library of Congress.

5. Disclaimer

The disclaimer featured in the photo above is normally used in fiction books and is included to protect you from potential lawsuits if your characters or plot lines resemble real people or events. This disclaimer acknowledges that some characters may resemble real people, yet it affirms that this is a work of your imagination. Disclaimers may also be used in nonfiction. If you're writing a memoir, you may choose to include a disclaimer that simply states that the events in the book are your memories from your perspective. You may also include a notice that certain names have been changed to protect the identities of those involved. This is often done when a work contains sensitive material. For example, in Marina Keegan's posthumous The Opposite of Loneliness, which is a work of both fiction and nonfiction, the copyright page includes two disclaimers: Portions of this book are works of fiction. Any references to historical events, real people, or real places are used fictitiously. Other names, characters, places and events are products of the author's imagination, and any resemblances to actual events or places or persons, living or dead, is entirely coincidental. Portions of this book are works of nonfiction. Certain names and identifying characteristics have been changed.

6. Permissions notice

If you borrow excerpts from any other work (another book, artwork, articles, etc.) you need to give credit on the copyright page. For example, in The Girls of the Atomic City: The Untold Story of The Women Who Helped Win World War II, Denise Kiernan includes this permissions notice of photographs used: All photos are by James Edward Westcott, courtesy of the National Archives, with the exception of: insert page 1, top left, courtesy of Celia Klemski; insert page 1, top right, courtesy of Colleen Black…

7. Credits to editors, photographers, and illustrators

This is optional and could instead be placed in the Acknowledgements section. If you choose to include these credits in your copyright page, you can still expand on them in the acknowledgements section. Most books will at least include illustration and design credits on the copyright page.

8. Country of printer/printing edition

This is where the book was printed and what edition it is (first or second or third, etc.). If you're using a POD printer, like DiggyPOD, you can include their information here, as well. This portion of the copyright page is included for customs purposes.

9. Publisher information

Publisher information (such as the name and address) should be included in the copyright page. If you're self-publishing, this would be your information. Some self-publishers choose to create their own publishing company instead of simply going by their name. If you'd like to go by your name, however, that's fine, too! You're the publisher. You get to decide how this section looks.

10. Author website

Since you're self-publishing, your personal website should be included on this page. It's a simple way to promote your personal site and get more eyes on your other work.

The following is an example of a short copyright page:
