 Work of the United States Government - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A work of the United States Government is, as defined by United States Copyright Law, "a work prepared by an officer or employee of the United States Government as part of that person's official duties": the term only applies to the work of the federal government, not state or local governments.
For example, the federal government purchased the United States copyright to Madison's Notes from Dolley Madison for $30,000 upon Madison's death.
Unlike works of the U.S. Government, works produced by contractors under government contracts (or submitted in anticipation of such contracts) are protected under U.S. Copyright Law.
