+"<placeholder type=\"indexterm\" id=\"0\"/> Until the 1908 Berlin Act of the "
+"Berne Convention, national copyright legislation sometimes made protection "
+"depend upon compliance with formalities such as registration, deposit, and "
+"affixation of notice of the author's claim of copyright. However, starting "
+"with the 1908 act, every text of the Convention has provided that <quote>the "
+"enjoyment and the exercise</quote> of rights guaranteed by the Convention "
+"<quote>shall not be subject to any formality.</quote> The prohibition "
+"against formalities is presently embodied in Article 5(2) of the Paris Text "
+"of the Berne Convention. Many countries continue to impose some form of "
+"deposit or registration requirement, albeit not as a condition of "
+"copyright. French law, for example, requires the deposit of copies of works "
+"in national repositories, principally the National Museum. Copies of books "
+"published in the United Kingdom must be deposited in the British "
+"Library. The German Copyright Act provides for a Registrar of Authors where "
+"the author's true name can be filed in the case of anonymous or pseudonymous "
+"works. Paul Goldstein, <citetitle>International Intellectual Property Law, "
+"Cases and Materials</citetitle> (New York: Foundation Press, 2001), "
+"153–54."
