unreasonable.
(d) At any time after publication of a work as provided by subsection
(a), the Register of Copyrights may make written demand for the
required deposit of any of the persons obligated to make the deposit
under subsection (a). Unless deposit is made within three months after
the demand is received, the person or persons on whom the demand was
made are liable--
(1) to a fine of not more than $250 for each work; and
(2) to pay into a specially designated fund in the Library of Congress
the total retail price of the copies or phonorecords demanded, or, if
no retail price has been fixed, the reasonable cost of the Library of
Congress of acquiring them; and
(3) to pay a fine of $2,500, in addition to any fine or liability
imposed under clauses (1) and (2), if such person willfully or
repeatedly fails or refuses to comply with such a demand.
(e) With respect to transmission programs that have been fixed and
transmitted to the public in the United States but have not been
published, the Register of Copyrights shall, after consulting with the
Librarian of Congress and other interested organizations and officials,
establish regulation governing the acquisition, through deposit or
otherwise, of copies or phonorecords of such programs for the
collections of the Library of Congress.
(1) The Librarian of Congress shall be permitted, under the standards
and conditions set forth in such regulations to make a fixation of a
transmission program directly from a transmission to the public, and to
reproduce one copy or phonorecord from such fixation for archival
purposes.
(2) Such regulations shall also provide standards and procedures by
which the Register of Copyrights may make written demand, upon the
owner of the right of transmission in the United States, for the
deposit of a copy or phonorecord of a specific transmission program.
Such deposit may, at the option of the owner of the right of
transmission in the United States, be accomplished by gift, by loan for
purposes of reproduction, or by sale at a price not to exceed the cost
of reproducing and supplying the copy or phonorecord. The regulations
established under this clause shall provide reasonable periods of not
less than three months for compliance with a demand, and shall allow
for extensions of such periods and adjustments in the scope of the
demand or the methods for fulfilling it, as reasonably warranted by the
circumstances. Willful failure
